Thank you for the detailed info, good to know. I've setup a TP LINK internet via outlet.... and it is working superbly, it seem most of the issues I was having were due to wireless signal strength here - I can now get about 45Mbits/s via outlet but the signal is much more reliable / does not drop ...

Would a network extender introduce noise over the whole network or only to people connecting to it? Still haven't gotten the ethernet over outlet thing going.

Hi Philip!
I ran a cple more tests RIGHT NEXT to the router and I get 2G at 80mbps, 5G at 110 mbps.... wired at 300mbps.
DG1670A has about 12 clients on it total. We're using WPA2 AES. I am on channel 1 with 20MHz and there are no conflicting wireless around us around that channel(they are around 6 ...

I've been messing with my wireless a lot lately. Hell I compiled an actual document I'm updating with tests I am running.
ISP is TWC, through Arris Modem/router (DG1670A)
My roommate's range extender is repeating the 2g/5g wireless signal using a Netgear Nighthawk Wi-Fi Range Extender.

I realized the first hop took extra time because it was through the VPN.

Here's a traceroute out without VPN:

Hi Philip - netstat seems to show a LOT of active connections, I'm not sure how to clean this up - I do use Mulvad (VPN) but effects on network with it on or off have not been significant enough in speed tests. It seems if I try to post it here the spacing gets messed up (ex: ' ' shows up as 1 space ...

Hi,
I am sharing a 50 mb/s TWC line and can't seem to get anywhere: I'm getting significant packet losses in games (freezes / disconects)
I'm trying to figure out where it might be coming from, if it is either from one of the 5-7 computers we have (a couple of those are heavy on streaming) or if it ...
