RE: More computer related than audio related, but. . .

Maybe I'm not understanding your setup but are you actually achieving over 1-Gigabit/Sec throughout your home?

Do you have network switches that support over 1-Gigabit/Sec?

Do your PCs or Macs have Ethernet ports that can deliver over 1-Gigabit/Sec?

If you do, then you do in fact have the networking infrastructure to support faster than 1-Gigabit/Sec service from your ISP. Most of us don't so paying for anything over 1-Gibabit/Sec would be a waste.

Even if I had Xfinity 2-Gbs/sec service I would never see that on any of my devices as the hardware is all capped at 1-Gigabit/Sec.

WiFi is the wildcard. Can you achieve anything over 1-Gigabit/Sec over your WiFi? I'm on Xfinity 800 Mbs/sec service and I achieve about 930 Mbs over Ethernet and around 600 Mbs/sec over WiFi depending on where I'm at in the house. I'm on a fairly recent Xfinity WiFi gateway (with the 2.5Gpbs ports on back).

I'm more curious about what you're able to achieve over WiFi.

Thanks.
