Re: 5ghz dongle
If you don't want an extra dongle on the laptop then try setting the superhub wifi speed from "up to 144" to "up to 300" - this will allow "wide channel" mode which could double the throughput.

The 3 superhub speed settings are:
54 - turns off "N" speed - on other routers, this is "b/g only" mode
144 - enables N speed, narrow channel (max 72 with single antenna N150 devices)
300 - enables wide mode (on other routers, 20/40MHz) - max 150 with single antenna N150 devices

NB. If the Superhub is Wifi certified and obeys the rules, it may be blocked from engaging wide channel mode due to adjacent channel occupancy
