I know very little in this area so this question might sound dumb. I own a D-Link DWA-556 Xtreme N PCIe dekstop wireless adapter. My download speed is about 5Mbps. I took a look in Speccy and the adapter speed can't top 650Kbps. In the networking tab inside Windows task manager the link speed for said adapter is 54Mbps.
What's going on? I don't experience slow internet speed though. There is almost no buffering when streaming 1080p videos. But shouldn't Speccy be reporting 5000Kbps?

Edit: In task manager it's about 6-10% of network utilization. So I am assuming that is out of the stated 54Mbps. So I am guessing Speccy is not not reporting correctly?

You've answered your own question, Speccy is not reporting the correct information. Report it in the "Speccy Bug Reporting" section of their forum.

Could also be a bits vs bytes discrepancy.

650 KB/sec is (650*8) ~5200 kbit.

Yea I kind of realized after making the post. Sometime it helps to write it out to see the problem.
