I used to have 100 Mbps internet and it’s always been perfectly fine. Never had an issue internet surfing or streaming. But my cable company had a promotion where I can get 155 Mbps speed for $20 less per month. So I took it, but I just realized, after the fact, that my router only goes up to 100 Mbps. So I’m not getting 155 Mbps even tho my service is giving it to me. So I need to buy a new router that is capable of 155 Mbps or more but that would be spending another $100.
Is it worth buying a new router for $100 to get that extra speed? Would the speed increase from 100 to 155 Mbps be worth the extra cost of a new router?
PS- I live alone so I’m the only one that uses the internet.
