Had my internet updated to 10G today, performed a speedtest and only got 8090 Mbs download and 6198 Mbs upload… probably should complain ---

What do you use that type of speed for? Andy ---

The technician plugged his iPad directly into the router through an adapter to the Lightning port. My PC can not get the same speed, now maxes out just under 1Gig ---

That is probably because of your NIC card. 10 gig is an amazing amount of bandwidth. When I was working most banks were happy to get a few t1’s but they were probably more interested in the security than the bandwidth. I can’t imagine what I would do with 10 gig but if it was cheap that would make me very happy. Andy ---

Yes, my card is capped at 1000Mbs. I don’t have a need to get any faster, the costs was the same as I was previously paying and came with a beast of a Wireless router. > **[Archer AX206 | AX11000 Tri-Band 10G WiFi 6E Router | TP-Link](https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-ax206/)** > > Archer AX11000 is a next-level WiFi 6 speed machine with stunning WiFi speeds up to 10756 Mbps and extended range.

> [@buynholdisdead](#): > > What do you use that type of speed for? > > Andy To be honest, nothing. i get much faster access and a much better wireless router for the same I was paying before but locked myself into a 2 year commitment instead of M2M. I do find it amazing I can pay about $60 per month for this type of speed compared to having to pay 10k per month for about 10Mbs for a fractional DS3 in the early 2000’s. And the equipment took a full rack [Previous page](https://discussion.fool.com/t/comcast-reluctantly-agrees-to-stop-its-misleading-10g-network-claims/101288.md?page=1)
