Previously, my connection stayed under 100 Mbps, but now I’m getting 300 Mbps via ATT fiber. My adapter’s USB ports show 3.2 Gbps, and I’m using a Gigabyte B550M-Aorus-Elite board with a Ryzen 5600X. The 3060Ti is in an x16 slot, and I’m considering upgrades to fully utilize the speed. Official drivers help push speeds past 120 Mbps, which matches what my phone achieves. The motherboard specs indicate PCIe 3.0 support, so you might want to look into compatible cards or a higher-speed adapter for even better performance.

Refers to real-world metrics rather than simulated speed tests.

Honestly, I’d need WiFi 6 for the best performance, though a regular WiFi AC might work too. It really depends on your router’s capabilities. Did your old adapter use Wireless N?

I possess 500 Mb/s and most "professional" hosting services can quickly reach capacity. Platforms like Steam, Blizzard, Amazon AWS, or Nvidia drivers often hit maximum speeds. There’s solid motivation to achieve the performance you’re paying for. Any method to boost speed would be ideal—otherwise a decent USB Wi-Fi adapter should suffice, though a PCIe connection could also work well. I’m not sure which is best, but I hope others can advise. Still, running a wire seems like the most viable option if possible.

I’m unable to use a wire. I’m renting a part of the house, and the owner won’t drill into the wall, so I’ll have to find another way to increase bandwidth.

I’m looking forward to Steam and P2P. Perhaps some files contain many seeders. Just the stuff I can’t afford legally or can’t watch properly. Such as certain Japanese anime.

Use a 5GHz Wi-Fi network on your router settings for better performance. Keep the device close to the router to maximize speed.
