       Firmware version?  Connected to what?

       How, exactly, did you "put the router to 150 mbps mode"?

     

       Which kind of "doesn't work"?  "doesn't work" at all?  "doesn't work"
    as fast as I expect?  (And how fast is that?)

     

    > [...] What do I do?

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get the User Manual.  Read.  Look for "Technical
    Specifications" and "Interface Specifications".  If the Ethernet
    interfaces on your router are 10/100Mb/s, then you'll need a
    newer/better router to get speeds higher than that.

     

       (Note: "m" = "milli" = 1/1000. "M" = "mega" = 1000000.)

      yea that's one of the bottom of the barrel routers that is a little old. You should upgrade to something newer to get better speeds.
