Intel 1000-N is really slow

Hello,

My Intel 1000-N is really slow on Internet speed. I noticed this problem in
Windows, too, but it's much worse in FreeBSD. I get capped at like 300kbs
and I have 1.8mbs dl. Even speedtest cannot come to level. I heard it might
be necessary to disable n mode? How can I do that?

Here is ifconfig:

iwn0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2290
ether 74:e5:0b:df:a8:48
nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g
status: associated

Please advise how to disable n mode or if there is another issue. This is a
nuissanse.

Thanks
