    No matter how close I get to my Belkin N router i cannot get higher than a 54mbps connection. I have changed the settings on the Intel Wireless Console but it does not change anything. I've always gotten at least 150 in the location where I have the wireless solution set up so it can't be the enviornment. Any ideas?

    Do you use WPA2+AES as security?

    Downloads, he also said a Belkin router, so it may be a crap shoot if it's working. But yes, WPA2 AES is required for 11n speeds.
