Finally something that seems to make sense to me.
I used Multithread to Dallas and Washington DC.
Using speedtest...which per the Optimum Folks here in North East NJ is the only site they use too back up their ultra 101 I got ---117Mbps Down .....: /

Your Speed Result:

Wild how much of a difference there is.
Specs at time of test:
Dell 1545 laptop with Intel 5300 Mini Wifi Card, - Connected to MI424WR-GEN3I Actiontec N Router @54 Mbps
NETGEAR WNDA4100 N900 Wireless Dual Band USB Adapter-@ 130Mbps
Netgear Powerline AV 500 Gigabit Ethernet Network connected with Marvell Yukon PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller @ 100 Mbps
Not bad considering I almost exclusivley use my D-Link DIR-857 to handle to wireless signal.
not to shabby. running a netgear av500 gigabit powerline to the Fios Modem and second powerline adapter directly to my beat dell 1545 with a ethernet controller.
