When it comes down to it, I can talk satellite tv all day long. But I have had a few questions in regards to internet, that googling has not helped with.
Obviously have cox, and if it helps, in Phx Az. They told me, to get my full potential, it required a DOCIS3.0 modem, and qualifying router. So I get better modem, better router= better speed/productivity. However, if I get 25/50 Mbps in my plan, and my router is rated 300 Mbps, then how come on average, outside of the peak hours am I getting 14 Mbps or lower? I can disconnect the router, and go straight from modem into computer and it comes back to 25 Mbps average.
I know very little about internet, again, as I am more interested usually in tv, so please use laymans terms. I can access router settings, and it appears everything is set and ready to be maxed out. Zero restrictions. Monkey one device running at a time on the router, when testing. Although it doesn't change when I hVe multiple devices running.
