Compare your Internet speed
WingZero8788:
Are you talking about a Gigabit LAN? Because that's not your internet speed.

My server has 1x1000m and 4x100m connections to the internet. Yes that is internet speed.

So, you're load balancing multiple connections but are you load balancing to routers or modems? Then there's also types of connections (DSL/Cable/T-1 or T-3/Bonded T-1 or T-3/Fiber) to consider. Highest I've seen DSL is 6Mb. Cable has gotten as high as 20Mb. Fiber I've seen up to 50Mb but those are expensive. Then you've got your T Carrier circuits which are the most expensive, but yet the most efficient and most stable (T-1 is 1.5/1.5 and T-3 is 3.0/3.0). So, just based off this it's easy to understand why I'm a bit skeptical.

This is my server that is not in my home. The 4x100m go to edge switch which goes to distribution switch. This is where my 1 gig link is plugged into. From there it goes to the core which has three 10 gige links.

Either something is going weird and special, or tweaking those wifi settings paid off.
I'm supposed to have 7.5Mb/s Down 0.5 Mb/s Up
