As I said, the easiest method for eliminating the router is to connect direct to the modem and prove that there is no performance degradation of the type described. Then work back to the router, wired and finally revert to wireless.
As a parallel track, if you wish to post your modem stats (including event log but removing any MAC address information for your cable modem), feel free becasue then we can quickly see if there is an obvious network or modem issue.

Buffalo? Really? I have a buffalo N based router and it is awful. Gets reasonable wireless bandwidth, functions well with multiple users etc but if my internet connection drops (Modem reset etc) I have to manually re-establish the connection in the config, reboot or wait until the lease expires.
