New E3200 slower than old E1500

HI have a 50 Mbps connection from Comcast and while using my E1200 on ddwrt (g only) I go about 40ish Mbps and it was fine. The problem was that when multiple were on the connection the quality would drop even though the bandwith shouldn't be stressing. I decided to buy a E3200 to fix this because I heard it was just only lacking some E4200 features and I can live with it.

No matter what i try setting on my E3200, I am not able to get past 13 Mbps. I have tried N-only, G-only, Mixed / 1500 MTU, 1400 MTU (advised on Cisco forum)/ Auto Channel, channel 1, channel 3, 6, etc. I also updated it to he latest firmware 1.0.04.

Honestly my E1200 was less of a pain than this thing is. Can someone help me out? I was hoping to not have to put DDWRT on this and it looks like some people have problems with it and it doesn't support 5GHZ yet, I was looking at Tomato by shibby, but same story I just don't really want to put an aftermarket firmware on this if it is supposed to be a powerful router.

Thanks for any help
