WiFi radio on my Galaxy Nexus seems to be pretty good.

I'm starting to love the Galaxy Nexus WiFi radio. I recently got (last Friday) a new Cicso DCP3010 DOCSIS 3.0 modem and upgraded my internet speed through Charter. I technically only pay for 30Mbps down and 4Mbps up however many people have said that you can get higher speeds with this modem because of the way it works. This is what I've been getting tonight on my Galaxy Nexus. I did two separate round of tests to make sure that it wasn't just a fluke.

I had one inbetween here that was 64.09 up and 4.57 down but for some reason when I try to share it it doesn't give me the link to the picture.

Here are the second round of tests about 15 minutes later.

Those are some pretty crazy downlink speeds. I thought LTE was fast (and it is faster than my wifi).

Are you having issues with signal strength? For me, the GN's wifi radio seems to get less of a signal and go much slower on wifi than my last phone (iphone 3gs). Are you having the same issues?
 
Well it seems to drop one "bar" of WiFi a little easier than my Thunderbolt did, but I haven't noticed any difference in speeds. I wasn't able to test it with my new super internet, but when I still had 15Mbps and only had a DOCSIS 2.0 modem I would get about 19-20Mbps with my Thunderbolt and I would get about the same with the Galaxy Nexus.
