So I upped my Internet package from 50 MB down to 150 MB down. When I directly connect to the modem, I'm receiving more than that speed wise. I had an older router with 10/100 ports, but I just got the Linksys AC1200+ with gigabit ports, but my speeds are still capping at 100 MB down like I have 10/100 adapters.
I dont. My desktop has gigabit as well as my laptop. I cant seem to figure out whats going on here.

Thanks in advance.

Every single speed test clocks in at 94 Mbps with the router in place. If I directly hardwire to my modem, I receive over 150. I went with a Gigabit ported router this time expecting to get the 150 Mbps+ that I get directly from the modem.

FYI it was the Internet cables that came with the router. When I switched to one that didn't come with the router, my speeds were exactly where they should be with the router in place.
