I have a Gigabit plan through Wave Broadband and I can only actually achieve 10% of those speeds. My moden is a Hitron CGNVM-3589 which is in residential gateway mode. My router is an Asus RT-AC66U with AsusWRT-Merlin installed. I tested my Internet with my 20011 MacBook Pro both wired and wirelessly. I even plugged my MBP directly in to the modem to see if the router was the bottleneck. All networking cable is Cat5e. I live in a rural area and the only router I can see other than my own is the one my neighbor has in his barn. All tests were done on speedof.me and dslreports.com. House was built in early 80's.
Wired: ~120Mbps
Wifi: ~80Mbps
Any tips or suggestions you have to boost my connection speed would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise I'm spending the extra $240 a year for nothing.
