I just want to double check that I'm getting the best possible download speeds, because I'm not sure if I'm being eternally dumb or if the details page of my router is being obscure.

From the router overview page;

Transmission speed Upstream:

11007 Kbps

Downstream:

33023 Kbps

Line attenuation Upstream:

17.4 dB

Downstream:

23.9 dB

Signal-to-noise ratio Upstream:

14.7 dB

Downstream:

18.6 dB

And from speedtest.net;

Ping: 27ms

Download Speed 10.11 Mbps

Upload Speed 1.15 Mbps

Speedtest has been run several times, results are nearly always identical.

Now, this is where I wonder if I'm just being dumb - but isn't 33000kbps 30Mbps, and not 10?

I'm connected via a Netgear N3100 Wireless adapter. More details upon request!

And what speeds are you paying for? Not sure the point of the question without a statement of what your suppose to be getting from your isp? Are you suppose to get 30 and 1 up or 10 and 1 up, or 20 down and 2 up?

What plan are you paying for?

Also if your suppose to get 30, are you wired to that router or wireless?

You know, I completely forgot about the plan we're on. We were supposed to be on Swisscom Infinity but we're actually on standard, hence the 10mbit download speed and not 20mbit (apparently they don't have a tariff that offers 30 for home users, at least).

Just checked that we've only been paying for standard, too. I'll have to get it upgraded.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious!

there you go ;)

Yeah on comcast here, and the way the limit the bandwidth is pushing different configs to your modem, so could be the same - might be capable of 30 and 10, and your just being limited to your payment plan.

Let us know if works out once you change your plan.

    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.

    • And he paid Joe Rogan $30M for podcasts. Terrible company.
    • I sure hope the AI does not give out wrong info during education
    • That is $130 more than I paid for my 4TB a year ago. How is this a deal?
