I have a NetGear R6200v2 router and my connection is slow. I get 65 Mbps download speed direct to the cable modem, and the same when using a wired connection. But over wireless I only get 18 Mbps.
What's wrong? How can I fix this?

Sifting through hundreds of old forum posts is not fun. So: here is what I did, for future reference.
Strangely: when I did tests before updating the router firmware, turning WMM off actually made the wireless speed improve, but only from 16 Mbps to 18 Mbps. Once I updated the firmware, turning WMM on was much better, jumping from 26 Mbps to 64 Mbps.
Hope this helps someone else!
