I'm going by the fact that they say they can deliver 150Mbps and 300Mbps 
(I accept that one can only get ~60% of the stated speed - more false 
advertising).
I'll check the links, but I've done what I can to avoid overlapping 
channels.

The devices are: Panasonic TV, VirginMedia box, xbox 360, Rasperry Pi, 
VM Superhub (in modem mode), one cactus, 6-way socket, 2 mobiles.
They were all powered off, no Bluetooth was in use and everything bar 
the router unplugged, the cactus got moved.

None, bar what the site survey shows me.

There's someone running a b/g network on channel 6 and they all permit b 
devices (I only allow g/n).
That could explain the 2.4GHz issue, but not the 5GHz (I'm on channel 40 
- chosen automatically).

SSID 	Mode 	MAC 	Channel(Freq) 	Rssi 	Noise 	beacon 	Open 	dtim 	Rate
5.1	AP	**:87	40 (5200 MHz)	-88	-95	100	No	0	450(a/n)	
5.2	AP	**:90	44 (5220 MHz)	-90	-95	100	No	0	450(a/n)	

Out of curiosity - do you folks get decent WiFi speeds? I've been using 
"iperf" to test.
