    My speeds are slow on my computer. Time warner bumped my 50mbps to 112mbps yesterday, and the card even at 100 percent was just as fast as my wire.

    Now that it's 110mbps it won't go past 60-80 without struggling. Is there a way I can get the full speeds? This is a Killer Wireless N 1103.

    Sounds like your wireless router is now the limiting factor.

    If the latest Killer drivers don't fix the issue, it could easily be that.
