I used "iStat Pro" and "Net Monitor" to run each benchmark, several times. 62mbps (sustained) to 66mbps, from the WAN 54mbps to 64mbps send & receive on the LAN The Apple Airport Extreme Base Station (Simultaneous Dual-Band): UNACCEPTABLE! There is a giant thread on Linksys' support forums about this very flaw. I had to reboot the router on a daily basis, to get the speed that I paid for.

The problem with the Linksys was that the speed degrades, to mere single digit megabits (even lower), over time, specifically if you do a lot of streaming, such as: video gaming, torrent download/upload, file sharing or movie downloads. On average, each 802.11N host was now capable of 40mbps (+/-) transmit & receive. It worked admirably at first, allowing most 802.11N (5Ghz) hosts in my apartment to make use of *most* of the massive internet bandwidth. Not knowing that Apple now sold a "Simultaneous Dual Band" router, I opted for the slightly more expensive Linksys/Cisco WRT610N router, which is capable of the Simultaneous Dual Band" function. Instead of doing the smart, frugal thing and downgrading my internet service to a lower tier, I instead opted to see what I could do to improve the speed of the wireless network. As a result, no device in my apartment, aside from those connected occasionally via ethernet cable, could benefit from the massive bandwidth provided by my internet provider. The advertised speed was 54mbps, but would peak at about 23mbps, transmit & receive.
The problem is, my prior wireless router was 802.11N, but needed to run within the 2.4Ghz "A,B,G,N" spectrum so as to work with all N & G devices. I have a 60mb/10mb internet connection, shared wirelessly among multiple computers and various other devices: To learn more about how and for what purposes Amazon uses personal information (such as Amazon Store order history), please visit our Privacy Notice.
