My internet provider has three different plans, and we have the 1 Gbps plan. However, my PC only downloads at 8 Mbps, which is very slow. As far as I know, our house has a fiber optic connection. I'm using a LAN cable, of course. Can someone help me and tell me what I can do?

Loading...Hello, So the following problem: I recently created a local MC server on my PC to play with friends. I did everything necessary: opened ports, opened ports in the firewall, and set up the server. But now I couldn't even join my own network. I was wondering if I missed something. I tried to join…
Hello, I signed a preliminary contract with the company Deutsche Glasfaser in 2021 for the expansion of fiber optics. I received an email in mid-2023 stating that the construction work would be finished and that the line would be ready to be activated from that point on. I've been waiting ever since for someone to…
Can I connect my Wi-Fi extender to my PS4 using a LAN cable? Or do I have to do it from my main router?
Important: I don't mean if you take the initiative to contact a provider who only wants to supply your own home with a fiber optic connection! It's obvious that that's expensive and requires a personalized cost calculation. I mean the case where a provider is already expanding fiber optics in the area and has offered…
Hey guys, I have a question. I just did an internet test. I have a 9 Mbps download and a 4 Mbps upload. But when I download something from Epic Games, I get a 2 Mbps download. Why is that? I have a 25 Mbps connection.
When is this the case if the subnet mask is the same? Or how do I check that?
Normally this should be done with a 100 (Mbit/s) connection between 11 and 12 Megabytes be per second. (I don’t think you have 100 Gbit, this is technically difficult to realize and is currently only offered for large companies… Private people receive a maximum of 1 Gbit/s
Normally, it means a lot of…
8 Mbit/s would be about. 600-700 kilobytes per second.
There’s something wrong with the technology.
Look at the router, what is the actual speed he’s connected to…
I made a mistake or read it wrong. I only have 1 Gbit/s. Thanks for the answer.
Ok that looks out for Powerline (load over the socket), you have your fault… The sockets are obviously not compatible and run over different fuses… or is this made in Switzerland without routers?
Put a LAN cable directly to the router or take your device in this room, then it should also run normally…
Then, up to a maximum of 100 megabytes per second should be possible, but this is achieved in the rarest cases, since many servers in which you load down reduce bandwidth. Sometimes it doesn’t work when many access it at the same time, which reduces it again… With my VDSL 100, I don’t always get to the 12 megabytes per second…
Thank you for your help. You really helped me. Is there any chance to make it via a socket? or do I have to get a new router to my room?
You mean “100 Mbit/s”?
Mbit/s or Mb/s?
Downloads are often measured in Mb/s.
If you have about 1/8 at download speed (in MB/s) in relation to what the line produces (zb 100Mbit/s), it is optimal.
Did you hang any other devices on the net or run multiple downloads at the same time?
And if the server you’re downloading is too slow, the faster line won’t get you.
so I should be able to download with 1 Gbit/s. I’m sorry. My Pc cuts down with about 8 Mbit/s or 1Mb/s. But it’s too slow for that. at the provider where we have it, at Swisscom, should go a download of 10 GB 86 seconds. It takes about 3 hours. Something can’t vote. So the TV is directly connected to the box and I have a plug where I can connect the Lan cable to the Pc. I’m just making this one download.
Is it only with this one download or in general
Try to connect the PC directly to the router without detours.
Because 1MB/s is very little…
Is so on every download. is really very little. I’m trying to thank you.
On Swisscom website I do not see a tariff of 100 Gbit/s but only those of
100 MBit/s up to 10 GBit/s
Can it be that you’re messing up units?
You might think 100 MBit/s and not GBit/s
and if you have 8 MByte/s in the download then this is absolutely in the cream of the usual and completely OK.
Because 8 MByte/s speak 64 MBit/s and 100 MBit/s the speed of the connection is the gross data rate. Data is also needed for the logs and headers, so the net data rate is always lower and if other devices and users use the Internet in the house, then you share the data rate with them and you are not only available the 100 Mbit/s.
We have the subscription with the 1Gbits/s and there I need about 86 seconds for 10 GB. I need three hours longer. I have the slowest Internet of my friends at a distance. it must be something wrong.
Well, look, your biggest problem will probably be the thing, your powerline adapter. Powerline is only an emergency solution if you cannot pull a LAN cable. It usually works relatively well if you want to call 20-50Mbit as good, but as in your case, there is hardly any power over it.
Powerline cannot be used for a 1000Mbit contract.
100 M bit/s or 1 G bit/s?
That would be more likely.
If you’re not a data center, you never have a 100 G bit/s connection in life.
And with downloads it doesn’t just matter what you can receive, but also what the server can send you. (And everything that lies in between and could brake.)
Yes, I have 1 GBit/s. How do I find out what’s with the server?
Not at all. It’s just that you can’t download everything from the internet in endless speed.
Did you make a speed test and try out other servers?
If that’s just the one server, it doesn’t deliver its data faster. How fast your line is has nothing to do with how many MB/s of the servers you download has left for you.
And remember, a byte is 8-bit. Data lines are specified in bits, files in bytes. So 8MByte who land on the hard drive are 64Mbit on the line.
It is always the same speed so it is not on the server. it is 1MB/s download speed.
Then you have to contact the provider. Something’s wrong.
But before that you should try another computer (e.g. smartphone speedtest app) whether it really is “on the Internet” and not on your PC. This should be the first question from the provider whether only one PC has the problem or all other computers in the network.
Whether you connect your pc via lan cable or wlan adapter with a repeater, it doesn’t matter, the WLAN remains the bottle neck.
If you get a reasonable repeater from the same manufacturer as the router and catch up to a socket on about halfway between router and your room, it can do a lot. It may also take 2 repeaters, but this will increase the latencies a bit, but you will notice only when playing online faster.
I can only put up something in my room. And I really would like to connect to Lan Cables.
He doesn’t have a good reception either.
Is a long LAN cable at the end of which you have a repeater of one LAN connection to get closer to the router? So reduce the radio distance?
I can’t clamp a cable it’s not possible. it is not important for me to get better Wi-Fi for the phone I just wanted to ask if it can be a problem with the WLAN card in the PC that it then does not have a good reception.
Is there a thin two-wire line? So, like loudspeaker cables, just thinner?
So what comes to a “real” telephone line very close:
https://www.amazon.de/KLINGEL-LEITung-20M-RT-WS-3001000011/dp/B00V3NXRX0/
And you can put it under carpets and footboards. This can also be squeezed through bores and through tubes of electrical cables.
But if your phone basically works, just “bad”, try the tenda thing. The then set next to the routers or in LAN cable range.
The router is in the living room. I would have to pull a cable through the whole house as well. I can’t do that.
You have to somehow get the internet connection in your room to do that.
Where is the router now?
There are converters from LAN to DSL. They’re meant for fiber routers in the basement. They can then transfer >100MBit via the old telephone line to a DSL router in the apartment.
You can then place a two-wire line (under the footbars, for example) in your room and use a DSL router. Better is, of course, a “thick” LAN cable. And you can connect a switch to run your PC and access point for your phone.
Thank you for making the effort to write the text. I don’t understand some expressions. but is it true that I can set up this device in my room and then connect the Lan cable to the PC?
Depends on the circumstances.
The best is always cable. If you can put a cable to the PC, you should do it – even if that is a greater effort. You just have to do this one time and never annoy you again.
Because of the phone, you have to watch what you can do. Place routers where most WiFi is needed, set up a WLAN repeater between router and where you use your phone (“half way”) or see if you can improve WLAN.
If the phone basically has reception, only bad, then you can connect a good access point to the router and turn off WLAN in the router.
I’ve got the “event” of the thing greeding in operation and that’s what all my WLAN problems can eliminate:
https://www.amazon.de/Tenda-RX2-Pro-Router-Dualband/dp/B0BLGJ8QQN
Whether this works with you depends on the circumstances. In any case, the thing has much better antennas than a router, thus automatically has a much higher range.
The thing is a “half router.” Simply attach the WAN port to the router, the router is then only used as a modem. You can use your own network that puts it on your own by WLAN and LAN sockets on the Tenda thing. The router is no longer connected (other network) except the telephone and the WLAN of the router is switched off.
I’m sorry I mean. Right now I used Powerline, but I’m going to change now. what is better. Set up new routers in the room or install WLAN card in the PC. My WLan is not good in the room at my phone
Not at all!
This also pollutes all possible radio frequencies – including flight radio.
The best is still LAN and if this is not “ordeterminable WLAN”.
So the PS5 is so slow to load down. I probably found out what the problem is. I use Powerline and that’s not good.
Find the vulnerability. First, look at the modem, which speed was built. Then also note from where to charge. 100GBit is already wahnsiinnig. You sure you got that?
There are 8 MBYTE not bit.
So you’re 8 times faster than you think. Furthermore, it should be a 100 Mbit abo not a 100 Gbit.
In addition, the Lan cable must go completely from PC to router. If you use Wlan in the meantime or Lan over the socket, it does not work very often.
I’ll download 1 MB/s. So I have a plug with which I can plug the Lan cable in. Do you think this could be the problem?
I just wrote up, Powerline is crap… trying to install a WLAN card, that’s even more trouble-free…
Yeah, that’ll be the problem. Doesn’t sound like Lan, but like Dlan or Wlan.
This usually doesn’t matter if you have the last meter with Lan cable and the rest is not transferred via Lan cable.
Wlan can run as badly as Power Line.
So Lan cable from the PC to the router.
How big would the effort to install a switch?
Not a router, but a switch when you need to cadge it. With Wi-Fi, you could make a repeater in between that increases the range.
WLAN cards are normally connected to a PCI-Express slot in the PC
The Wi-Fi in my room is not so good on the phone. would it be better to set up an extra router in the room and then pull the LAN cable from there?
where do I have to install this card?
can I give you a picture of what it looks like?
I strongly doubt that you have 100 Gbit/s
if then 1Gbit/s in download or 100 MBit/s

Contact the provider and report defects – if this does not help, then report to the Federal Network Agency
If it’s a lame server you’re pulling from, glass fiber won’t help you
Here the units are guaranteed to be thrown together. Bandwidth is given in bit/s, the download rate in byte/s. 8 bits are a byte.
Are you sure about 100,000 mbps?
No, I told bullshit it’s less. Only 1 Gbit/s
