Advis, this trick has worked for me so far. I got a speed increase from 114 mbps up to 300.

Just to make sure, turning off uAPSD doesn't damage the computer in any way, right?

Thanks

Sounds like you're referring to the connection speed from the router, i.e., what shows as "speed" in the Network Connection Status box?  Right?  I'm not sure why many people focus on that instead of internet download (and upload) speed.  I likewise obtained 300mbps connection to the router at one point during my experimentation with various N-7260 drivers and settings, but that was of no benefit since I was still only getting about 20mbps download from the internet (based on a test at speedtest.net) --which  is much lower than my level of cable service is supposed to provide with an N-capable wireless card and router plus the proper cable modem.  Since I swapped in the Intel Centrino N-6205, the connection to the router only shows 130mbps -- which is what I'm actually used to for that stat, but that's FINE because I am now getting an internet download speedtest of 57mbps.  Much faster internet, which is the bottom line number that counts for most people, not the speed of the connection to the router.  That said, I could see where a connection-to-router speed of 130mps could be a limiting factor for people who subscribe to a higher broadband speed tier than the 50mbps tier I subscribe to (though I'm not sure what the cutoff point is where it would start making a difference).
