Slow Wi-Fi? 10 tricks I use to get internet speeds as fast and reliable as wired

Even with a Netgear Orbi 970 mesh Wi-Fi network, backed by a 2Gbps AT&T fiber-optic Internet connection, I sometimes have Wi-Fi slowdowns. That's because my home has two buildings. One's primarily an office, while the other is where I lay my head. The former is a new 1,000-square-foot building, while the latter is a 3,000-square-foot historic building with all the thick walls that come with older homes. It's not easy to cover all that space, even with top-of-the-range network gear.

New internet experience from GFiber Labs

In our GFiber Labs demo, we used gaming as the test scenario. We ran two gaming consoles next to each other and injected congestion into the network with the lab's traffic generator. Predictably, things fell apart: lag, stuttering, pixelation. Then we carved out a dedicated lane (a "slice") in the network that reserved bandwidth just for gaming traffic. The result: the driving game demo went from jittery and glitchy to smooth and responsive.
