Netgear Next Router Difference Speeds

Hello everyone

Well basically I have a Netgear WNR834B router, I on 10 Mb along with must people, on evenings my speed drops to around 4Mb, now is this is common then fair enough.

I done a speed test and using wireless WPA-PSK (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES) security and channel 11-13 all I can managed is 6.4Mb maybe 7.4Mb on my router this morning, however using a wired connection I am getting 9.8Mb via the modem (NTL250) & 9.8Mb via the wired router.

That says to me maybe there is something not quite set up correctly, I was getting 8-9.5Mb upto a a few weeks ago but I have not changed anything. It is definitely the wireless sigal even though my quality & strength are excellent.

Could it be the security level??
