Weird. Do you see the same speed when downloading actual files from a
fast source?

In some tests a did a year or so ago, the 2.0n was able to do around
94 Mbit/s, so there shouldn't be any fixed limit here.

I guess there is some kind of problem, but I'm not really sure what it
would be.

What is "Modem mode" and "Hub mode" exactly?

Perhaps if the CPU is somehow loaded with other tasks (transmission?),
it could be possible that the network throughput suffers, though I
haven't actually tested this.

If your modem performs NAT in one of it's configuration, you could try
switching the Fonera to bridge mode, meaning it will connect its WAN and
LAN ports in a plain layer-2 switch / bridge configuration, removing the
need for packets to pass through the CPU at all.
