    Can you post details of the wireless device please (manufacturer and model number)? Have you checked that WMM is enabled, and have you tried temporarily disabling wireless encryption? Is this wireless issue occurring with more than one computer?

    I have also the same issue. I have upgraded and subscribed comcast speed at 75MB.  Wired speed per speedtest.net is about 70-80MB,  However,  the wireless speed is only at 25MB peak.  I also also tried the MTU and also manual DNS address but not help...

     

    Why this modem is so painful to setup?
