How I doubled my Internet speed with OpenWRT

I don't see the problem. If you paid for 120 items and you can't carry them in your car, it's not the grocery store's fault, even if "most people" used small cars.

If you want to get a better Wifi connection, get a good router and plug it in to the one installed by Comcast.

Personally, I got an Asus router as well so this does not affect me. However, I can understand this from an average customer's point of view. It would be nice for the ISP to give a router that is good enough for the speed that they advertise. The router should not be the bottleneck.

But the port needs to support the full 120. Cabling problems are on him, but if the builtin wifi can't do 120 to anything, then that's misleading advertising. Wifi is entirely capable of 120, and it's not something you can check until it's already delivered and failing.

If the grocery store makes a big deal out of having staff to carry groceries to your car, and how they sell 120 groceries, they had better be able to carry all 120 to cars that support it.

I have a NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band Router.
