Hi!

I got my iMac a few days ago, and couldn't be happier. No hardware issues here.. :)

However, I notice that the WiFi speed is very slow. This is very noticable when downloading files through Safari, and in general when downloading through other programs. When I'm in Windows 7 (bootcamp) then the Internet WiFi speed is at maximum as usual.
Does anyone know what the problem is with OSX? Any way to fix this?
Thanks!

I can't speak for download speed...but i notice with all my mac's if i place my own dns server numbers (or googles,open dns ect) in network settings my web page browsing is faster (no lagg).
 
Fixed. :)

I fooled around with some settings in my router, and now it works great.
