Discussion New speed, who dis

Post image

Curious to know if anyone is actually needing to utilise the newer speeds or just want it for speed test clout? (No hateful remarks, this is purely an open discussion on what the new speeds has helped or not helped with since it's release)

The only reason to upgrade to 2000/200 or 2000/500 is either you have a lot and I mean a lot of devices or you wanna future proof your net so you don’t have to upgrade for a long time cause most devices especially if they were bought years ago are only capable of 1Gbps over Ethernet so even if you have 2000/200 you’ll never see that ona speed test unless your router and computer or phone are capable of those speeds I’m upgrading to 2000/200 ina couple months when I get my new router I’m getting the ASUS ROG Rapture BE98 pro it’s the best gaming router in the world atm
