if your on 50mb the seems the router can only handle 30-40mb speeds from my tests with QOS on, as my downloads would not go any faster then
4MB/s QOS + bandwidth set to 1mb or 1000kbs,
5mb if QOS only,
6.4MB/s QOS off (bandwidth control is tied into QOS option so if its off it turns off bandwidth even if its is ticked)

if QOS is turned on and your downloading at the speed of the router can handle when turned on the router will go very slow when trying to goto other pages on the router

guess we need to wait for the gigabit routers as thay have faster CPUs in them

on top of that the netgear router does not alow you to set it to your real upload limit as well on the throttler you can only pick 1mb or 1000kb
--------
make sure your not uploading, Xfire, p2p, bbc iplayer,DNA client (Hidden service) on any of them, if oyu are haveing ping problems allso make sure the router is set to WPA2 for best speed as WPA1 or web can only handle 3MB/s over Pre N stuff on this router
