New C6250-100NAS Slow 2.4Ghz Speeds
I got this modem/router less than 1 week ago. Firmware version V1.02.02. LAN speeds are in line with what I pay for through Comcast; usually hovers around 200Mb/s, sometimes going as high as 225Mb/s....

2.4Ghz doesn't have same performances as 5Ghz will. Also some 2.4Ghz wifi devices are limited by there design and support. 5Ghz will have better speed performances than 2.4Ghz will. Especially on a older model wifi modem. What your seeing on 2.4Ghz will be around the norm.
Wired speeds will always have best performances over wireless.
