C7000v2 Link Speeds
I have a new C7000v2. I am trying to make sure everything is go before the cable people get here (not hooked up yet). I noticed in my Windows settings that my receive link speed at 5Ghz is 54Mbps. However, a Powershell 'netsh wlan show interface' shows 1300 Mbps. I have seen this question posted, but I have not found any answers. I have also seen that WMM must be enabled but I don't know where to do that. Do I have 54 or 1300? Thank you.

Would be something to inquired about with either MS or the mfr of the wireless adapters support and information site.

Re: C7000v2 Link Speeds
Thank you, I have contacted the manufacturer, and so far have only gotten form-type responses along the lines of 'how to reset your cable modem/router.'
What I am really interested in...is the 54Mbps 'right' or 'wrong'...if it's 'wrong', I would rather not mess with it and just get another gateway.

Ensure the adatpers wifi drivers are up to date from the Mfr.
Try disabling or enabling Smart Connect on the modem.
Try a reset on the modem and setup from scratch.
Might try a different wifi adapter.
If this doesn't resolve what your seeing, this points to the adapter or something in Windows.

Re: C7000v2 Link Speeds
Easy way to test it is to actually do a speedtest on it.
The 5ghz should saturate 54mpbs without issues. So if you get speeds faster than that, kind points at it not displaying correctly
