Airport Extreme, Macbook slow transfers.

Hello all,

Today I was cleaning my Macbook and decided to test the speed of my Wireless N connection, from my macbook to my FreeNAS server, which is connected to the Airport extreme base station via Gigabit I`m getting around 30-40 megabits, The top that I seen over time is about 6-7 Megabytes, which is seems slow considering that the APEB is N and gigabit, when considering same type of transfer via wire gigabit I`m getting around 250-500megabits.

Airport extreme is set to 5GHz N and macbook shows 270megabits. So why is it so slow. Even when I transfer to a drive thats attached to the APEB its still around 6-7megabytes. I tried coming closer to the wireless AP and still the same, what could be an issue here is it a setting on the APEB ?

Thanks in advance for the help.

MacBook Mid 2009, Mac OS X (10.5.8), iphone 3gs
