So -
Are you using a modem/router recommended to support those speeds?
How far is the modem/router from the device you're using to check your speed?
How many devices are connected at the same time?
For me, I have a laptop, two cell phones, a desktop computer, two TV sets, a tablet, and a photoprinter all connected at the same time and at one of those TVs is in use. The laptop is currently shut off and the printer is on, but not being used at the moment. The tablet runs 24/7 because I use it as my alarm clock on my nightstand. The modem can handle up to 500mbps and the router can receive signals from the entire inside of the house, the laundry shed, the lanai, the porch on the other side of the kitchen wall, and the area immediately outside my front door in the carport (but not the rest of the carport).
My current speedtest.net result is:
237.70mbps download
11.98mbps upload
Both the modem and the router are beside me at my desk, and the only things that aren't in this room are the two TVs and hubby's cell phone.
