Newer wifi can potentially do more, but if the AP or the device only support 2.4Ghz then it's not surprising to once again hit that limit of around 20Mbps - especially if there are multiple other 2.4Ghz base stations around. Still more than the 12Mbps, but not the numbers you're claiming. And before someone starts claiming that HFC isn't up to delivering 12Mbps at peak times, the simple fact is that I have no trouble sucking down 280Mbps over HFC no matter what time of day or night I test...
