I have coaxial internet installed at home with speeds of 150 down and 20 up. On my computer, downloads are roughly a megabyte per second, while uploads sit around .10. On my phone, speeds are similar, which is typical for being near the router. Running Ethernet seems challenging since I live with my parents who prefer not to drill holes in the drywall. I suspect the problem might be with my network card (Realtek 8812AE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC), but I want to confirm before purchasing a new one. The antennas appear correctly adjusted according to the manual.
