My n network is only running 100+ transmit rates while my g network is running sub 100 transmit rates. At one time the n network was consistently up to 270 - but not lately. The truth is, I don't know if I have configured my network to get the most out of it. Just not sure what I am doing (or why I have it set this way). But all n mode computers are backing up to the external HD attached to AEBS and all computers can play music over AX speakers - so that is good. Haven't figured out the printing yet, but i think it is a driver issue. Anyway, could the low transmit rates be a result of my set-up?

Here is my set up:
- Verizon Fios ethernet from ONT to AEBS (latest model running 7.4.2 firmware). AXn also running latest firmware
- I have 4 computers all wireless using n mode and an older G4 running in g mode (hence the need for my second network)

AEBS Setup:
- wireless network in 802.11n only mode
- 'Extended this network' unchecked
- Connection: Share a public IP address
- NAT port mapping enabled (don't know why)
- Wide Channels enabled

AX:
- AX connected via ethernet to AEBS
- #2 wireless network in 802.11n (b/g compatible)

Does this look about right to you? And any other thoughts about why such low transmit rates?
