I called up Netgear support and they said that the range extender can not do more than 25mbps by default which I told him is wrong.

I am on the forum to see if I can get a better answer.

Here is what is going on.

I have a router in the basement that has to project its signal to my office that is on the second floor.

The point of the range ext is to sit on the main floor and help to me get a stronger signal to my office.

====== from the office ======

Router:34mbps

EXT:8mbps

(I have moved the location of the the EXT and 8mbps is the most i could get)

====== from the room the ext is in ======

Router:64 mbps

EXT: 12mbps

====== plugged into ext ======

15mbps

all tests were done via speedof.me and speedtest.com

next round of tests via iperf app to see speed within network

====== from the office ======

Router:40mbps

EXT:6mbps

====== from the room the ext is in ======

Router:75 mbps

EXT: 12mbps

====== plugged into ext ======

15mbps

so as per my test it shows even within my own network I can not get higher than 15 mbps using 2.4ghz N-wifi

so what can i do to fix this?
