I have virgin wifi, getting 150 Mbps on the laptop through Ethernet but only around 35-40 on my iPad 3 wifi only model, and 40-45 on my iPhone 5s. I've tried changing the wifi channel on the router, am I missing a setting that would speed it up?
If you have a network set up that is b/g/n compatible, then the speed of the network drops to whatever the speed of the slowest connected device is. So if you have, let's say for example, an old "b" compatible device on it, then the entire network is at "b" speed.
