So i got a Netgear C3000. I live in a 18 tenant apartment building, so not huge. We've been using the Wifi with good 50 Mb speed until a few days ago, the speed tests went down to between .5-2 Mb/s.
The TW tech came out, tried it on his modem and an actual Time Warner modem and it was the same. Perfect wired speed, terrible Wifi speed. He thinks there's some kind of new interference somewhere, but can't pinpoint it exactly, understandable. I live in an apartment with 4 other roommates, each are online gamers and streamers, that's 5 people using the same internet. Tried connecting only 1 PC to wireless and still same results. Tried different channels. Nothing.
So before we go and lower the internet speed; Is there a good, relatively cheap router/modem that doesn't pick up interference? Expensive router/modem that doesn't pick up interference? Or should I just get a modem/router with a bunch of Ethernet switches and a bunch of Ethernet cables 100+ft to wire around the apartment? I'm at a loss, and I really don't want to limit the internet between 5 gamers xD
