Although my trusty Linksys WRT610N router wasn't set up with unnecessary power savings in mind, I turned on its low power modes just to see the effects: The "low" setting lowered the power output of my 802.11n router from 19 to 18 watts. Unfortunately, this commendable approach reduced bandwidth disproportionately. Some routers are set up with their "Power savings" mode on by default. If you're sick of slow Wi-Fi speeds but hate to go back to Ethernet, we've got a handful of tips that'll help boost weak signals. 50+ Mbps: Enough for 1080p movies and over-the-air backups.

Even though, the typical bitrate of a 720p iTunes TV show is 2-6Mbps, your router needs to compensate for dropouts, other connected clients and prebuffering. 20+ Mbps: This is the minimum you need to even consider HD streaming.4-5 Mbps: Enough for handling all websites and basic video streaming.0.5-2 Mbps: Is enough for all your basic chatting and mailing services, though it will slow down some content-heavy websites - especially if you've got a 20+ Mbps downpipe.In some of our tests, it wasn't uncommon that a 802.11n connection with devices only a few meters apart (and with only wall in between) can fall back to a mere 2-15 Mbps. On the business side of things, even menial tasks such as remote desktop or real-time collaboration suffer from a poor Wi-Fi-connection. Unfortunately, the 300Mbps (megabits per second) that the n-standard promises rarely delivers anything even close and proves to be a massive bottleneck in the days of 50/100Mbps (or more?) broadband connections, 1080p video streaming, massive backups and so forth. The first 801.11ac chipsets are coming soon, but 802.11n is likely to stick around for many years to come - both in the business world and our homes.
