    I just got an N router to go with my new FW, but i noticed i was only getting 65mps.
    Then upon further inspection my FW is in abg mode, and it doesn't show an N mode in the settings, BUT there are other selections for N configuration and it's set as enabled.

    I'm sure i just made that really confusing.
    Anyone have any idea?

    Maybe try checking your router settings? My G router allows for B-only, G-only, and "mixed" - so maybe try changing to N-only or "mixed", if that's an available option.

    I've also read that running both ABG and N devices on the same router doesn't always work too well.

    If nothing else, maybe ask for advice over in the NBR "Networking and Wireless" sub-forum:

    Good luck!
