Asus RT-N66U vs Compal modem

[Kajaken]

Hi!
My problem is that when I connect my computer directly to my compal ch7284 modem I get about 502/51 Mbits. when I connect to my Asus RT-N66U routewr i get 220/54. what am I doing wrong here ? And I'm using tomato shibby 1.28

What is Tomato showing as your WAN speed?

Well this is weird!, WAN =1000M FULL, LAN 1= 1000 FULL, LAN 2= 100M Full, and to clarify, the left "light" on the LAN 2 is yellow, the rest is green'

Edit: after checking the Cables I moved the LAN 2 Cable to LAN 4 and it's still yellow, It's the Tivo Cable so It shouldn't affect my speed

Edit 2: I'm basically running a regular setup of shibby 1.28. I'm using this since it has the option to shut down your attached harddrives. What in ther hell am I doing wrong here

You're doing nothing wrong. That's the fastest WAN to LAN you can get with Tomato because it doesn't use hardware acceleration.

Thanks for the reply. After some research I've found out that you can increase the speed atleast if you're using tomato:

In the router menu
Tools->System Commands -> type modprobe bcm_nat and press excecute

found this tip here http://tomato.groov.pl/?p=450

My download speed is just below 300 Mbps now.
