Netgear N600 WNDR3700v5 WIFI speed
My ISP provides 300 mbps.
When I connect a LAN from the computer to the router I get 300 mbps but when I use the WIFI I only get 150 mbps.
My wireless set up is 5Ghz, enable SSID, and WPA2-PS...

What wireless device are you connecting that only gets 150?

have you tried to change the channel to the best channel using a wifi analytics app?

I just tried that. I'm actually the only one on my channel. My width is 40 MHZ. It says my signal is 99% but still my speedtest is only 180 mbps. Anything else you can think of other than LAN?
