Hi guys, I'm using 20meg connection with my Linksys WRT54G router, wireless to my Laptop which is plenty fast enough. Whilst testing the broadband connection speed, I achieved between 13-14meg speed download and 1meg upload, is this about right or is there a restriction of some sort using a router?
