Thanks Terry. I'm still pondering why the 5 ghz runs slower than the 2.4 ghz. The router is in my downstairs office and I ran the tests upstairs. Both on the same iMac. I wonder if the pwr output is lower at 5 ghz. I have a lot of 2.4 ghz devices running so one would think the 2.4 freq would have more interference hence less speed due to retransmits. Still pondering...
