Netgear N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router Model WNDR 3700

I've had this router for a few years now and just recently my internet was upgraded from 20 to 50mbps. Wired, I can reach those speeds, but I'm unable to do so through wifi. Can anyone help?

Was wireless speed OK B4 upgrade? How bad is it?  If wireless signal level is marginal or has

interference speed decreases. Also some settings can affect it. Usually signal level better than

60dbm is good. 5GHz try to use higher channels like 149/153, on 2.4GHz  find a clean channel as

possible. I had same router way back running Trondah OpenWrt f/w which worked very well.
