So what should you be able to get out of a Time Capsule? Apple Insider has a good comparison of theoretical vs. actual, so here’s a table. This is a good way to see if your Time Capsule is actually performing correctly in MB/sec
| Theoretical | Real World | |
| SATA 1.5Gbps | 150 | 75 |
| USB 2.0 480Mbps | 60 | 30 |
| Fast Ethernet 100Mbps | 12 | 10 |
| Gigabit Ethernet | 120 | 40 |
| 802.11g 54Mbps | 7 | 3 |
| 802.11n 300Mbps | 38 | 9 |
So right now we just did a benchmark with a MacBook Air and a Time Capsule and got 2MBps on 802.11n which is way, way less than 9MBps and mor elike what you would see with generic 802.11g. |
