I've decided to stick with my AE version 3 router for awhile.
Instead of upgrading, I'm going with cable connection to TV, Sonos station, and my Mac.
I have to route the Mac LAN cable across the room. That's the only inconvenience. I've ordered flat, while LAN cable, which should not be
intrusive if I route it along the baseboard with our white walls.


I ran a speed test this weekend.. My Mac, running wireless.n was getting ~60Mbps at best.
With a cable this jumped to >110Mbps.

And is that 150Mbps close to the speed package that you are actually subscribed to and paying for???

And I gather you used some of the normal speedtest test sites to find your speeds??
