    take manufacturer’s claims

    divide by 10

    half it

    half it again

    you now have the max your device will ever reach, with the usual speeds being ~60% of that

    (my isp says 300mbps, divide by 10, half, half, 7,5mbps, which i think i never saw since the speeds are actually from 3 to 4)

      I can get like 300 Mbps on a speed test tho

      That’s probably a problem with your router or receiving hardware btw unless you’ve confirmed otherwise

      Especially if you’re in an area with a lot of other wifi signals or radio frequency interference

      If it’s an ISP provided router you could probably ask for them to look at it

        isp provided router

        receiving hardware

        tried multiple devices, both wireless and wired, even with an name brand external wireless antenna

        Especially if you’re in an area with a lot of other wifi signals or radio frequency interference

        Middle of nowhere countryside.

        Tried, they gave me the Deny, defend, depose treatment
