I started getting that problem too. Directly connecting to my wifi router, my speeds were good, but using wifi, my speeds dropped to something like that 29. To make a long story short, an over saturation of the 2.5G bandwith from all the rented wifi router/modems meant that the speeds were not being as advertised, so I got a dual band wifi router, a Netgear R6100. It is rated for something like 800-some Mbps on the 5ghz band and 300-some on the 2.5ghz band. Downloading a free wifi channel scanner let me see what channels were not really being used, so that I was able to tune my router to unused channels. My speeds are now where they should be. Anyone having the same 29M problem might look into first downloading a free wifi channel scanner program to see if there is a better channel, and if that doesn't work, you probably need to get a dual band 5ghz/2.5ghz that can do the 802.11ac. But remember to make sure your nic card is also compatible with the 5g band 802.11ac.
