I did some more tests tonight and whilst I'm getting the speed test results I expect at the moment, Xbox 360 Marketplace downloads and Virgin game files are very slow. It took at least five minutes for a 35 MB Zune update to apply. The strange thing is, I've seen torrents max out my connection with this build.

This problem is bad enough that I'm probably going to revert to stock D-Link firmware, which is a shame because I much prefer DD-WRT's feature-set and the recent builds have been working much better than older ones, apart from this download speed problem.
