Not getting 300mbps on N600 WNDR3400v3
I have searched and searched on these discussion boards, and everything tells me that the speed of my router (N600 WNDR3400v3) doesn't get to the advertized 300+300mbps that it says on the box. Right...

As per the WNDR3400v3 Data Sheet "Five (5) 10/100 (1 WAN and 4 LAN) Fast Ethernet ports with auto-sensing technology" as well as the fine N600 Wireless Dual Band Router Model WNDR3400v3 User Manual p.12 "Four local area networks (LAN) 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
ports for connecting the router to your local computers.", p.106 Internet connection, ..., Port speed 10/100 Mbps Autosensing ... there are only Fast Ethernet ports (100 Mbit/s) - so the total Internet traffic you experience (100 minus some protocol overhead) is about all what you can expect.The 300 Mbit/s wireless PHY rate would allow slightly more over the air under ideal conditions, while concurrently talking to the Internet and multiple LAN ports, but it's more a theoretical number.
