I need faster speed speed on router

Hello,

I have a 3 year old Nighthawk ac1900 Wi-Fi cable modem router.

internet speed coming in from cable is well over 100.

Speeds on my devices from the router are only 30.

 

which new product from Netgear will get me up to near maximum 

 

thank you all

jim

    What wifi devices do you have? 

    Do wired speeds result in seeing faster speeds? 

     

    I recommend getting into a modem only unit and then connecting up a external router, like a NG R or RAX series router or a Orbi wifi system.
