my linksys WRT54GS craped out on me after 3½ years so i was forced to make a speedy replacement purchase and got a belkin n150. now my wired computer reads it as at 100.0 mbps obviously because its a 10/100 router. now to my wireless desktop with the linksys it showed it was at 54 mbps as it was a G router. now tonight i noticed the wireless decktop reads at 13.5 mbps and im confused to why. its a n150 and the receiver is a n300 now should that not atleast read as faster on the computer. like the linksys one or is it just because this router is alot newer?

Router
Belkin N150 Wireless Router F9K1001

Receiver
Newegg.com - BELKIN F5D8055 Wireless N+ Adapter (Black) IEEE 802.11b/g, IEEE 802.11n Draft 2.0 USB 2.0 Up to 300Mbps Wireless Data Rates WPS, WPA/WPA2, 64-bit/128-bit WEP

now obviously my net is no where near that fast as i have 3mbps cable internet. im in a grandfather clause no price hike in 8 years and counting ^^

Edit: signal strength is 5 bars sometimes 4
 
anyone? id like to know if i should return it or not im unsure if it should read as only 13.5mbps
