So, I just received my 27inch last night (ordered a few minutes after they were available, i5, 1TB Fusion, and 680mx), and I LOVE it so far. I'm getting back into PC Games after years of being a console gamer so I installed Windows 7 using Bootcamp 5.

Everything works great in Windows, except the wifi; it's horribly slow/intermittent! It says excellent signal strength, but I'm getting speeds around 10 kb/sec! I installed Steam, and when downloading a game, it'll fluctuate: I'll go from around 90 kb/sec for a moment, up to as high as 400 kb/sec, before dropping back down to 0. It never stays on any speed for more than 10 sec before dropping. Browsing the internet is an absolute chore.

I installed Steam in OSX and it downloads at 1.2 MB/sec or higher consistantly. Bootcamp and it's drivers are all up to date... Any suggestions on how to speed this thing up? I haven't been able to put my 680mx through the paces since I can't even get a game downloaded! Thanks!!
