You can get 300meg on 2.4Ghz, but it takes up a lot of spectrum (a resource you share with your neighbours) and so you shouldn't. You should save that for 5Ghz mode. That said, if there are no other networks near by at the moment then you shouldn't be having these problems.

Try a factory reset of your Shub? You'll have to put all the settings in again though.

I'm starting to wonder if it's an IP address DHCP type issue. Have you tried connecting other wifi things like a smart phone? Just to count out the laptop.

Still, it's probably the Shub that's acting up as changing the OBSS setting seems to fix it.

OBSS is bugged, which is why you only get 130meg with it enabled. It is a known bug.

You can get 300meg in 2.4Ghz mode with OBSS off but shouldn't, you should set it for 1.44meg if using 2.4Ghz mode. It will also give you better range this way.

You can get 300meg at 5Ghz mode with OBSS off without being a wifi hog as there's more space in that part of the spectrum.

With OBSS on? If it worked? Well, we'll see. If it works well then it could make 300meg on 2.4Ghz possible. I doubt it would be possible very often for most people though, as it would rarely get the chance to go into 300meg mode with all the overcrowding on the 2.4Ghz band.
