speed issue wit 890l

AgaAP:
Anybody encounter problems with speed? I have 200Mbps internet but all I get through d-link 890 is 100Mbps on 5Ghz. Any idea how to solve it?

* Link>What Firmware version is currently loaded? Found on the routers web page under status.
* What region are you located?
* Are you wired or wireless connected to the router when speed testing?
Internet Service Provider and Modem Configurations

* What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
* What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have?
* Is ISP Modem/Service using Dynamic or Static WAN IP addressing?
* What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have? Link> Speed Testing Sites
* By-pass the main host router and check internet connection by connecting a wired LAN PC directly to the ISP modem to verify connection access and ISP speeds.
* Check cable between Modem and Router, swap out to be sure. Link> Cat6 is recommended.
* Check ISP MTU requirements, Cable is usually 1500, DSL is around 1492 down to 1472. Call the ISP and ask. Link>Checking MTU Values

I recommend that you have your ISP check the cabling going to the ISP modem, check signal levels going to the ISP modem. For DSL or Fiber service lines, ensure that the ISP is using good working phone or cable lines to the DSL modem and that the phone lines are filtered correctly. For cable Internet, RG-6 coaxial cable is needed, not RG-59. Check for t.v. line splitters and remove them as they can introduce noise on the line and lower the signal going to the ISP modem. I recommend having the ISP service physically check the lines going from the out side to the ISP modem. Connecting to the ISP modem could result in a false positive as the signal to the modem could be just enough to that point then adding on a router, could see problems. The router operation is dependent upon getting good data flow from the ISP modem and the modem is dependent upon getting good signal from the ISP Service.

Sorry for lack of info.
My D-link is DIR -890l, Ver.: A1, F/W 1.02. Im in China, Shanghai, connected to China Telecom. Modem to router is on CAT6.
I tested on speediest.net direct connection to modem: Down: 28 MB/s, Up: 3MB/s. Wireless on router: Down: 11MB/s, Up: 7MB/s.
I tested via ISP speed test site with similar results. All tested on Macbook late 2011.
My modem is standard broadband modem from ISP. Its DSL on fiber optic. Modem it is bit a mystery as its all in chinese. All I know is just dynamic addressing.
Any suggestion what  I could do to reach speed closer to modem over wifi?

Hard Harry:
First, from the router's diagnostics home screen, what IP are you getting? This will be 2nd option down on right. For privacy reasons, all I need is the first two octets to know if private or public. For instance mine is 68.226.x.x.

Second, could you take a picture of the modem? I don't mind translating some chinese. I can google EVERYTHING!  ;D

"Down: 28 MB/s, Up: 3MB/s. Wireless on router: Down: 11MB/s, Up: 7MB/s."

Do you mean Megabits(Mb) or MegaBytes(MB)? 87Mb would be about right assuming you're 2011 has the 2x2 MIMO (BCM4322) instead of the newer 3x3 MIMO, and assuming you have moderate to moderate-low signal. Also, why does the above statement conflict with " I get through d-link 890 is 100Mbps on 5Ghz. "

Im geting IP 192.168.1.3

According to speediest.net setting should be megabytes.
