Recently upgraded from a Verizon Fios package of about 15 down, 5 up? Wirelessly I got a lot less than that. Since I just built my own gaming system at a high budget, I upgraded to a Fios quantum package with 75/35. The increase in performance in everything I do is enormous, at least, with a wired connection to my desktop. I draw even more speed than I pay for; speed tests put me as high as 90/45 on my desktop.
With 5-7 devices acting wirelessly within the house though, the wireless speeds are still laughable. As low as 5-10 down and 2 up with a wifi connection, and on newer devices such as androids/iphones/ipads, and two laptops. And I don't mean running all at once and sharing bandwidth, I mean that sometimes even with just one wireless device having everything to itself, it still rarely exceeds 15.
I'm still running with a four year old Verizon standard router, the Actiontec MI424-WR. Should I replace this/add something to my network to improve wireless speeds? I have heard but do not know for sure that the Actiontec is required if you also have Fios TV, which I do.
