I currently have 5gb internet but on a google nest system. I recently found out some mesh routers such as the orbi RBKE963 or the tp link deco XE200 have direct 10gb uplink ports. What other mesh products exist with uplink ports in them? Doesn’t have to be 10gb as I said my internet is 5gb.
Currently have 1.5 gbps up and down. For $10 more a month I can get 3 gbps. Some areas around me are getting upgraded to 5 gbps and 8 gbps. FTTH was installed in my area a year and a half ago.
My network has 1 gbps switches and no device can handle more than that. So no real need for me to go for anything faster. Getting a couple of 10g switches with poe costs a lot for something I probably wouldn’t notice right now. Downloading from steam is already at it’s limit due to CPU bottlenecking.
You could make the argument that multiple devices could use the speed simultaneously. But in my case, I am the only one using the wired connection. The rest are using WiFi, so the extra 500 mbps may not be used by my computer but could be used by WiFi devices at the same time as they each use a different port on ISP router.
Q: how much is the internet at your place and what is your location anyway? Greatings from probably the otherside of the planet, with interest.
