My wifi chip built on my PC was acting up and got a TPlink Archer T6E and damn I thought my internet was fast before! 214.76 download Mbps! The old one wouldn’t go over 50mbps. Plus the new card can use the 5G wifi so that helps too.
Funny I live in middle of farm land and I have super fast internet, while living in a suburb a few years ago, DSL was the only option with 20mbps speeds.
Pic of PC for your time. Little bit dusty.

Only about 50 down/10 up on my machine right now. It’s actually a 200 down, but I’m connect via a powerline network, which despite being advertised as 2Gbps, limits me to 100Mb and sometimes less depending on what’s connected (I’ve got a window AC on the same circuit right now, which is why it is so low). Still as recently as 8 years ago, I had a DSL connection that despite the fact it was running to a fiber-backed head end in the building, still maxed out at 3.5Mbs, so I’ll take 50 all day long (not that I would prefer gigabit).

I so hope you get fiber internet some day. It’s something else entirely.

I’ve been desperately trying to persuade my husband to switch from Stench- ury Link to Xfinity but I haven’t had any luck yet.

That’s better than we were getting on the local fiber network. Bastards throttle everything even though they have bandwidth to spare.

My shitty provider is only giving about 200/10 Mbit/s when I pay for gigabit, but they’re the only game in town for more than crap DSL speeds, so we all deal. They have some kind of crazy monopoly with my city so they can also charge essentially whatever they want, while in downtown they actually compete with a couple other cable providers and provide half decent service.
Just now over 5GHz wifi from my phone:

The advertised speed is 1Gbps down /750Mbps up , so it’s looking good.

I am jealous. Have had the same DSL for 15 years. It's the only option other than dial up. Just tested the download at 1.0 Mbps.
