I think this has to be per segment.  Example, I have a whs and all my machines 
on a gigabit switch. My transfer between whs and mce is about 69Mb/s. But the 
wireless routeron my network is 10/100. I'm only using 1 port on that to feed 
the gigabit switch

Duncan,

At lot of the dual-band wirless N routers have a usb port of them for 
connecting an HD that is then available to machines connected for 
backups etc. over the network. One disadvantage of the WNDR3700 is that 
it is really slow for file transfers even on a 1Gbit network (which 
you'd have if you have it). So, that's the one of two negatives about 
this router. Still, I'm going to get it as they all have pros and cons.
