Hi all! I was wondering what can I do to improve my internet speed? Because my wifi router gets the full speed(duh hard wired), but my other devices only gets 20% of that speed and throttles down as well at night. And no I don’t think I can hard wire my gaming consoles and desktop. I just saw one of the videos of amd tech upgrade. Iwas wondering if i buy that u7 pro, will it help me get my wifi speed up?

With lower service plans or country areas with low service ability this just myte be the case and an ethernet coord myte be the way to go. With that being said I'd point to a 21$ netgear 8 port gigabyte switch. Put 1 ethernet from your router to the switch and then plug everything into the switch. However you could also call your service provider(or change providers) upgrading the plan should get some improvements. But that'd be my 2 recs

Due to currently its sharing 370mb amongst all your devices

The switch just plug the ethernet from your router into the 1 slot. Then every slot after that becomes available for other devices

Kinda like a wifi extender but for ethernet coords so you dont have to run a ton of lines to your modem/router
