You probably need to update the firmware of your router.

I had the same problem getting MTU of 1454 with my DLink until I updated its firmware.

After updating firmware , post your TCP Analyzer Report

I have the latest firmware for my belkin wireless g router F5D7230-4_US_8.01.21
It won't let me adjust mtu above 1492 and thats if i set it for PPPoE

Try the following with TCP Optimizer:

network adapter selection - your NIC
MTU 1454
TTL - 64
TCP Receive Window - 33936
MTU Discovery - Yes
Black Hole Detect - No
Selective Acks - Yes
Max Duplicate ACKs - 2
TCP 1323 Options:
Windows Scaling - uncheck
Timestamps - uncheck

Advanced Settings tab:
Max Connections per Server - 10
Max Connections per 1.0 Server - 20
LocalPriority - 1
Host Priority - 1
DNSPriority - 1
NetbtPriority - 1
Lan Browsing speedup - optimized
QoS: NonBestEffortLimit - 0
ToS: DisableUserTOSSetting - 0
ToS: DefaultTOSValue - 80
MaxNegativeCacheTtl - 0
NetFailureCacheTime - 0
NegativeSOACache Time - 0

I believe MTU for your DSL service is set at 1492, not 1500.

No problem with your tracert except high ping times to the router at hop 1.

Follow the tips of this thread to tune your wireless signals:
