Speed of AC66R Router
-
I have Comcast and I pay for Performance 20Mbps with power Boost for internet speed, Windows 7, Intel Core I5 , 8GB of memory, Motorola SB 6120 and CAT 6a Cables. My xbox that is furthest away from the router says around 2.37Mb on Cinemanow now and the xbox closest gets up to 3.35 Mb which is still not good enough for HD according to Cinemanow(3.5Mb needed). Speedtest.com says my speed on my computer plugged into the router is 25.45Mb as the highest for my Download and 4.67 as the highest for my Upload. My local area connection status on my computer which is plugged into the router says 1Gbps as well. Any thoughts?

How are your Xboxes connected? Wifi? If so run cables for a much better connection. Perhaps consider using Ethernet-over-powerline or ethernet over rf if your house is wired for that.
This may come across as patronising so I apologise if it does; are you sure that Cinemanow is reporting Mbps and not MBps. 8x3.35 seems very close to your rated speed.
Is the AC66R what you're currently using?

Thanks Steve,
yes I'm using the AC66R right now, and my xboxes connected by wifi..
Thanks for your suggestion, I'm going to see if my house can use Ethernet-over-powerline. ;)
