Wireless connection speed slower when connected to WiDi (Netgear PTV1000)

Hello,

 

I have been using my Intel WiDi with a Netgear Push2TV (PTV1000) for a couple of years now. Recently I moved into a new home and purchased a new wireless router (Medialink Wireless N Broadband Router).

 

Since moving to this new home and new router, I have noticed my internet connection speeds are cut in half when I am connected both to my wifi and WiDi.

 

Without connecting to the WiDi, I am connected at about 20Mbps through a wired network connection or my wifi connection. When I am connected to the WiDi and a wired network connection, the speed stays the same (about 20Mbps). However, when I am connected through my wifi and to the WiDi , my internet speed drops to about 10Mbps.

 

Any idea what the issue might be here? I have a Toshiba Satellite E205-S1904. I don't ever recall this issues before with previous wireless connections, but I never tested it out either.

 

Thanks!
