I need some help on this one. I just installed this router and am getting very slow speeds...I have the second fastest comcast internet. Loading pictures and videos is much slower than it was with my old router..a G router. Any suggestions?

First thing I would do is check that you have the latest firmware.

I'd go DD-WRT on that router.

My best suggestion would to be to go and get a Netgear. I'll probably get skewered for that, but the install issues with Cisco stuff has become really painful.
If you switched from another brand to the linksys, there's your problem.

To clarify for Andy in case you're not familiar with DD-WRT. It's a Freeware firmware compatible with many routers.

No worries, DD-WRT rocks IMO.

Play around with channels as well, sometimes that helps.

Will this migrate my MAC Address Filter list? How can I export it out of Linksys?

That stuff usually pushes all my buttons until I make it quit working.
