Using a TG1672 as modem slow speeds

[Autrei]

I have a 50 - 5 internet connection on TWC, and I have a router (TG1672G/TW) that is a Modem-Router. It has been giving me many problems, so I tried to make it into a bridged modem (Which it works) and connected it to my Linksys WRT-54GL with DD-WRT installed. But I only get 16 - 5 on wireless (With Ethernet the full 50 - 5) what is happening?

Is it your modem or are you renting it from TWC?

If renting, have them replace it.

They sent it to us when they upgraded our internet for free from 15 - 5 to 50 - 5

If you are having issues with it contact customer service. Don't try to mess with their equipment, you pay a monthly fee to avoid that.

That isn't the problem, I just want to know about the slow speeds when bridging

Because you are using a router that is so old it should only be used to hold a door open. That routers is using 802.11g. You are actually getting pretty good speed which likely means you are close to the router.

You need a fairly modern wireless router to be able to get 50m on wireless. Even some of the early 802.11n devices would only run 25m or so.
