I upgraded to 10mb service yesterday. Doing various speedtests i noticed the speeds hadnt changed, although logging into my modem i could see that had been upgraded to the 10mb service.
So doing the speed tests over wireless, i decided to wire myself up. Getting no better results @ about 4mb. So i decided to plug my modem straight to my laptop via ethernet. Wollah i get 10mb service!
I have a BEFSR41 that has a 10mbit rated WAN port, but this clearly is underperforming as im barely getting half of that.
Does that mean its time now to get myself a new router??
I have seen people saying that some routers have a 100mbit WAN rating but only perform at 15mbit. I want to make the most of the 20mbit when it arrives. Any suggestions for a router?
Thanks
