I am using several D-Link DWA-130 Wireless N USB Adapters(rev.C) and they are running at 54MBS even though signal = 100%.  I also have several 11G devices on the net too. Because of these encryption is WEP. Can't the router connect at 11n if there are older devices on the net?
Adv Wirelss settings:
   Transmit power=Hi, Beacon=100, RTS/Frag=2346, DTIM=1, WLAM/WMM/ShortGI - NOT selected

You set WEP encryption because of the N&G mix in your network???

You should have an option in the Advanced wireless tab "Wireless Mode". Set it as "802.11 mixed (n/g/b)"

And set WPA2 ENCRYPTION asap. Your network is exposed big time.

It's not the router that connects at "N" speeds (Speeds that are theoretical). It's the devices that do. If your DWA-130 USB adapter has a maximum of 150 MB/s it will never reach the 300 MB/s throughput that the N draft is advertising. In practice this is insignificant, true N speeds being non-existent. It depends a lot of the environment and the losses, interference and all correction parameters that are decreasing the connection rate. As the distance between your DWA and the DIR-615 increases the connection will drop lower than the max supported by the device, lower than 300 MB/s or 150 MB/s. You can see this in the status tab of the router's configuration menu.

Wireless N can not run in WEP mode, so either change it to WPA2 or turn security off. Been there done that......
