Hi All,
i have a cisco 1142 in my home lab, seems that I can not get performance past 90 Mbps, the data rates mention I can get above 144/300 , but just can't seem to get any more performance than what I am seeing even with a device next to the AP. I have autoneg between the switch and the AP on gi0 interface.
I am using auth open/wpa2 , no aironet extensions, and aes ciphers which I have read on this forum have caused problems in the past. My wired network is getting 400Mbps have a cisco nexus 3k upstream switch and 4351 router, so I think the problem is at the AP level. Any thoughts?

Your configuration on the AP looks good. how are you measuring this?
Remember Wireless is a shared medium, depending on the channel utilisation and the capability of your wireless chips will determine the actual throughput of your device.
Data rates you mention of 144 and 300 are based on an HT MCS 15, 2 spatial stream 20MHz & 40 MHz wide channel, but actual throughput will be approximately half that. check out ,can find out more by looking at this sheet
