I’m not sure if I’m connecting in low light, but can I achieve a 1Gb download speed across all my devices at once? Most ISPs claim they provide 1Gb service, but does that apply to every device together or separately? A common question is whether “10 gig internet” means 10Gb split among all devices or for each one. I want to upgrade my home WiFi so I can stream games faster while my family watches YouTube, Netflix, TV, and browse the web on their own gadgets. If anyone knows how to set this up with a mesh network from a reliable brand and a decent router panel, that would be perfect. WiFi 6 would also be helpful. I’m also curious if any ISP supports such a setup, even if the hardware isn’t available yet for apartments. To sum up, I need a system that covers all the features you mentioned—modem, router, mesh network, and an ISP that can handle the bandwidth. Thanks and stay safe!
The network delivers about one gigabit per second, providing ample capacity for numerous devices simultaneously. For Linus, his 10 Gbps connection is accessible to all connected devices, though it starts quite quickly. The ISP will depend on local options that offer gigabit speeds.
It's the total cost, not per device. It varies based on how many devices you have and your pocket size. If you own ten or fewer devices, you might switch to a 10Gbps router or switch and boost your internet speed to 10Gbps, then apply bandwidth limits so each device uses only 1Gbps. Be ready to spend a lot for a 10Gbps connection.
I use an Orbi mesh network from Netgear for my router. The latest model supports WiFi 6, so you might want to check it out.
You might still discover options costing $1000 per month or higher for such a service.
Your current internet provider likely provides these features as Metro Ethernet. However, as @Lurick mentioned, it might be costly. Let's look at this differently. Comcast offers 2 Gbps fiber that reaches homes, similar to what big companies use. The main distinction is that Comcast heavily reduces the price. If you're within a third of a mile from their fiber network and are ready to invest around $1000 for installation plus $299 monthly with a 2- or 3-year commitment, you could get it. I think a 10 Gbps plan would be extremely pricey, likely exceeding $1000 each month.
It could also need the ISP to set up fresh fiber and/or equipment to provide a 10Gbps link for OP, raising the upfront expense beyond $30k.
