Many households have more than 10 internet connected devices running at one time. As a result, each device must share the available bandwidth, which could impact your speed. Luckily, with a gig speed fiber connection, you get the same fast speed up as you do down. Access as much as 20x more data than some traditional 50 Mbps cable connections, so everyone can work, learn, stream and play online without skipping a beat.
Speed tests are a great way to ensure you’re getting the gig speed you expect. With gig speed, you should see about 940 Mbps upload and download from a wired connection as your router will use some bandwidth. Wired speeds and measured speeds will vary.
For the most accurate results, we recommend you check for the following:

Make sure you’re connecting your device directly to your router using an ethernet cable and make sure your router is up to date. Newer routers are optimized to run faster, and you’ll get a stronger connection.
Whether you use Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge to browse the internet, check that you’re using the most up-to-date version to get the most from your fiber internet.
For optimal performance, your devices should meet these recommended specifications.
To get the best possible WiFi signal, place your router in a central location where you use WiFi most, and away from physical obstructions and other devices that may interfere with the signal.
