Use 80MHz or 160MHz channel width on the router to achieve maximum speed. Change the Wi-Fi channel if there is interference. Of course, if we connect via Wi-Fi, the recommendations to achieve the best speed in this connection mode are still present: The PC is not very old, old equipment may not be able to squeeze the maximum speed from our Internet connection.Īs you have seen, with these recommendations you will be able to get the maximum internet speed via cable, but you still have to check other aspects.Ĭurrently the most recommended Wi-Fi 6 card is the Intel AX200, this card can be purchased to install in our laptop, or through a PCI-e adapter for desktop computers, as with the ASUS PCE-AX58BT that we have analyzed in this article. The PC network card is Gigabit Ethernet or higher, and is connected to the router at that speed (see synchronization speed in “Control Panel / Network Center / Change adapter configuration” and double click on our network card, to show us the maximum speed. If we use a switch to have more devices connected, that the switch has Gigabit Ethernet ports. That the network cable is Category 6 or higher, although Category Cat5e cables are perfectly valid as long as they are less than 5 meters long, although due to the difference in price compared to cat6, it is advisable to buy these directly last. In case the estimated speed is not achieved, these elements should be reviewed: 
These are the results I have obtained after performing the speed test:Īs you can see, the result has been satisfactory. As we are connected by network cable to a router with Gigabit Ethernet ports, the test should result in the full contracted speed. In this case, we are going from a 600 Mb fiber optic connection.
This way we can check if we are taking advantage of the full potential of our Internet connection. The best way to check our connection is by doing a speed test here. Any other connection method, Wi-Fi repeaters, Wi-Fi Mesh systems to which you connect via cable to the nodes, PLC with or without Wi-Fi, will always give us a worse performance than if we connect via cable to the router.
