Wired versus Wireless Internet Speeds
A wired connection is always going to provide faster speeds. Because your Internet is
physically attached to your device, there is a direct connection to your Internet signal.
Try to match each device with its ideal connection. Use wired connections for devices
such as PCs, laptops, media players and gaming consoles. Mobile devices and tablets
are well-suited for Wi-Fi. altafiber can only guarantee speeds to your gateway.
Check All Devices
Multiple devices divvy up your bandwidth like a pie. The more devices being used
at one time, the more your Wi-Fi speed is divided. Additionally, some devices can’t
support higher speeds, which slows down the others. To see what speeds a device
can support, check the owner’s manual or perform a web search using its model
number.
