    Hi all, this is my first ever thread so i'm not sure if I put it in the right place..
    I have an Asus F551MA laptop with
    Wireless Lan: WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
    Network Card: 10/100/1000 Gigabit Fast Ethernet

    When my laptop is connected directly to the Thomson TWG870 router provided by UPC, the speedtest result on UPC Speedtest is dowload speed: 78mbps upload speed: 20mbps
    However, when I do the speedtest when the laptop is connected to wifi, and in the same room as the modem, the results are:
    Download Speed: 4.03mbps (4026 kbps (503.3 KB/sec transfer rate) )
    Upload Speed: 16.69mpbs (16690 kbps (2086.3 KB/sec transfer rate) )
    Latency: 11 ms
    Jitter: 4 ms

    Can anyone explain why this would be?? It's not even near the 200mb mark, i'd be happy if I could even reach 80mbps over wifi..
