So decided to try the latest merlin fw (380.68_2) and lo and behold I've now got full speed!

Interestingly on the LAN - SWITCH CONTROL page it only shows CTF is enabled:




On the new version there is a nice cpu graph too, so you can see the cpu load whilst doing a speed test. Much better:



Guess I'm going to have to return the new router I ordered last night.... oops !
You may find your Wireless range reduced with the latest Merlin as it uses the newer ASUS drivers. This was the main reason John forked Merlin in the first place.
