you don't use your network for anything other than internet access?

I only ever saw my WRT54GS (original version, same hardware as the GL 
but with more memory) hit 50Mbps under totally optimal conditions, with 
a single client active, doing a single 1-way transfer, and within 30 
feet line of sight of the access point.   as soon as you have two active 
wireless guests, the total bandwidth gets throttled, and if you're more 
than 30' away the speed falls off rapidly.   even using range extender 
antennas on the WRT54GS, I get much better range with any of several 
802.11n class wifi access points, including a netgear N600 (WDR3600 or 
something?) and a UniFi AP.
