WD Live 2TB Speed Expectations

$

I got an 2TB WDL drive for x-mas, upon setting it up and use Lan test to benchmark the speeds I am a bit disappointed, but after read the WDL forums and some Google research my expectations may be too high, please let me know, config is as follows:

Wireless N network
WNDR 3700 router

Computer 1 connected at 150Mbps, I get transfer rates ~3.5 Mb/s
Computer 2 connected at 300Mbps, I get transfer rates ~7 Mb/s

Are those slow or normal given I am wireless?

I have tried a ton of troubleshooting but nothing really helps. The only thing I have not done is SSH into the WDL and make conf changes as some posts on the WDL forums suggested -- there is no one consistent setting change it's all over the place. Before I go this route wanted to see if my expectations are too high I was hoping wireless to get ~10Mb/s or more.

Anyhow let me know, appreciate the feedback.
