I just contacted Comcast last night and upgraded my service from 25 Mbps to 50 Mbps. I was on speedtest.net a little over a week ago and my top speed recorded then was 29.7 Mbps. Now after the upgrade, when I go to speedtest.net, the fastest speed I've reached is 34 Mbps wired and only about 16 Mbps wireless.
So I have a couple questions. First and most importantly, why is the connection so slow? I have an Arris TM722G DOCSIS 3.0 modem and a Linksys WRT54GL which is supposed to support speeds up to 54 Mbps.
Second, I was looking to purchase a new router but I'm a little confused. I was looking at the Netgear WNDR3700, in the details it says it supports 300+300 Mbps for up to 600 Mbps. If my internet speeds are limited to 50 Mbps, is there any point in getting a router that supports 300-600 Mbps?
