Hmm, that is very odd then. When I remove the router and connect directly to the cable modem, I get full bandwidth. So the problem can't be on the computer end. Did you guys go to websites like http://www.dslreports.com to test your bandwidth? I've already upgraded the firmware but there is no difference in speed. I don't think drivers exist for routers since you don't need to install router software into the computer. What do you guys have set for MTU size at the router setup page? I'm not sure if I should play around with that, it's set at 1500 currently.
