    Being a fiber field tech I can tell you that using Ookla speed test with and without is a better decision. Run a trace route through the command prompt to compare the path your data takes through your ISP local and distant router pathing. Make sure the server it pings to matches your local ISP server. Then compare once more. This will give you and idea of how long it takes for your data to travel from place to place. Comparing them is such a useful tool to ensure your ISP isn't purposely throttling your speeds. Looking at you AT&T. >->

      What? I mean yea tracing is a good troubleshooting tool to see the path your packets are taking, which is far more useful supporting large complicated networks. For a home all you'll really see is which hops your taking to whichever service you run ICMP tests on. It'll help determine, if you are having an issue, if it's inside your ISP or past them on the backbone. Tracing really isn't gonna do anything to inform you about your speeds or throttling... and once you get a gig+ FTTH, the hardest part is finding any test server that's capable of providng you that much bandwidth for testing... latency, loss, jitter, priority routes, all much different and usually more important than simple throughput. And with your fiber, are we talking dedicated runs from the COLO, or GPON or another shared line? Plenty more bandwidth than a 32down/4channel up cable, but still sharing that line with /32 /64 or even more neighbors.

      The router isn't overloaded. The connection draws the full speed for that session in-between other connections. It's also the router... routing those speeds are hundreds megabits. Most modern routers are layer 2 AND layer 3 so it also switches on a wired and wireless level. This is important because each connection can possibly push throughput to a gig.
      We don't know what else is running on his network but safe to say he isn't transmitting more than background data on multiple devices... that's not going to take much and max the connection. The reason it goes down is more than likely server speed/QoS, the home networks routes and QoS/ how the OS is handling the transfer of data AND he's not using a good speed test app. Google is 🐕 💩 for speed tests

    If you are having issues with speed on ethernet, upgrade your cable to a cat6 or 8 and dump the 5e (do not use cheap dollar store cables). I know there is very little difference with 5e and 6, but it is worth a try. Also try resetting your router as the buffer may not correctly flush when using ethernet. It will fill up and tank once full. If this happens on all wired connections, it is most likely the router.

    I have Wifi6. I upgraded to a Wifi6E card in my computer after doing a speed test with the old one. The old card didn't do wifi6 and I was getting around 250-280Mbps with it. I put in the new Wifi6E card and I was getting 600s, 700s and up to 800s in Mbps with the new card. I also did a comparison test between the Wifi6E card and ethernet cable and the wifi card was up there with the ethernet cable speeds.

    Well regardless if you use Wi-Fi or Ethernet you can only ever be as fast as your router connection to your ISP. Inside your home from device to device your Ethernet connection is going to be in the gigabits but once it hits the router you won't be getting that. So as long as your WiFi is faster then your connection to your ISP you really will never see any issues with speed on WiFi vs Ethernet. The problem you can have with WiFi however is interference from other signals.So for stability Ethernet is always preferable but if you can not run a direct line to your router, modern WiFi is fine.

    Great video. My two cents is that the actual speed is one side of the full picture. Although, the Ethernet speeds being slowest is probably just an outlier. However, you do want to consider the ping and latency numbers as well for all 3 situations. Generally a wired connection has the lowest ping and latency and that makes all the difference in the world.

    Cat.8 are very fast.

    In general, an ethernet connection will be faster than a WiFi connection. That's because there's a direct, dedicated connection between the device and the router. There's nothing standing in the way of that data getting where you need it to go. WiFi, however, relies on the radio waves being able to reach the device. Ethernet is a fast and reliable connection type that offers much better performance for intensive tasks like gaming and HD streaming.
    i dont know what happend to you, but probably something related to that ethernet connection problem.
    because it just immpossible that wifi will offert better performence compared to a direct connection.
    it like saying wirless offers less input lag then wire. samething. wish is immpossible.

    When conducting these types of experiments it’s always important to have a good sample size. Also name your equipment, the equipment you have + your service speed determines how fast your internet is. Example all my network equipment has the ability to transfer 10G, but my ISP service is only 600 Down, 30 UP. My APs are rated for 250MBPS. So on ethernet with CAT6E my PC gets 650 Mbps to the internet, ~2GBps on my local network between my servers because my motherboard supports up to 2.5GB internet. Generally wired will always be faster and more stable.

    service provider Engineer here , things that can cause your wifi to be faster than your Ethernet could be many things
    from cable type , Cat 5 , Cat 5E can cause this sometimes , thats why Cat 6 and 6 E is a go to.
    other things are perhaps interference! belive it or not , UTP cable is suseptable to this , thats why STP cable exists (Shielded tangled pair) and can reduce the speed
    so can the mother boards port can affect this , maybe there is some wierd stuff going on at a software level that limits it sometimes , that part im not too sure
    Wifi 5.0Ghz is a amazing tech and i absolutly love its power and speed tbh , its really really good , perhaps your running your 5.0Ghz on a VERY high Mhz frequency which gives it much more bandwidth and perhaps it has MIMO tech , who knows

    Network reset will help in case any settings that may have been changed that would limit the bandwidth you are receiving while hard lined in

  • @virusx5112
    @virusx5112 Год назад

    Likeliness is, the modem has gone “okay, wireless devices have priority so let’s allocate a small bandwidth to our direct connection LAN user on port #X” which happens to be smaller than wireless connections. This is a protocol which is quiet common among most manufacturers. This is also why you see this “spike” upon initiating the speed test. But once configured and changed the appropriate settings. You will see more potential than you thought ever could come from your internet.
    Edit: this could be the issue besides other most common problems, example; cable broken or damaged, drivers not up to date or partial damaged. Potentially with some manufacturers with motherboards more so towards the budget side I’m assuming, the bios requires updates and a few other things like having dedicated software for maximum Ethernet utilisation. Kinda like motherboards with built in wifi needing their first driver initialisation with the OS and then appropriate updates to follow.

  • @davidroberts5600
    @davidroberts5600 4 месяца назад

    It depends on your PC and router bandwidth. If that's a 1 or 2.5GB end to end then you've got a problem. Wireless can easily beat a 100mbps Ethernet connection in terms of transfer. Latency is a different story.

    As a network engineer. Speed and latency are two different things. WiFi can also be fast but drop packets. Ethernet is always the way to go if possible. Unless you use cat5 or something ancient. Modern cat6 is best.

    List of questions
    Are drivers updated for both wifi and ethernet?
    What's the wifi adapter capabilities? AC, AX, AD?
    What's the modem/router capabilities?
    Are you using a switch or directly connected to ISP equipment?
    The tests are so vague. I'm sure you know there's many variables/bottlenecks. Without technical information there's no way to tell exactly.

  • @TheGorale97

    Personally it's more of not if wifi is faster than Ethernet, but that Ethernet tends to be more stable. You don't get the lag and packet loss you do with wireless.

  • @TheGreekReichtangle

    if wifi beats ethernet at download and upload speed, then the cable could probably be cat3 or cat5, or maybe the ethernet cable is connected to an extender, there is literally no way it would be because the ethernet port speed is limited to 100 because his speed is already reaching higher than 100mbps

    My original antennas had a bad connection with my card and it really effected the performance of my WiFi and Bluetooth. Bluetooth was very noticeable as the signal would cut out with slight movement. Replaced the antennas and I now have full WiFi and Bluetooth strength.

  • @oshpai

    with WiFi you can get lower ping and faster speeds but the main reason you'd use ethernet is the insane stability which outweighs the pros with wifi

  • @lightbluehaze
    @lightbluehaze 11 месяцев назад

    Ethernet might be capped so your wifi can pump more waves out preset up like that, most likely from the manufacturer thinking most users need wifi over wired.
    Just a guess really I don’t understand internet very well.

  • @ArsevensX

    It doesn't matter ethernet or wifi in terms of speed. It just ethernet offers stability imo.
