Seeking Help Should I move to Railwire?

[Bose Raphy]

I would say to take railwire as you will get promised speeds even though there might be few downtimes and captcha issues (attachig my speedtest of 60Mbps Plan) {FUP 60Mbps - 2000GB (₹588/month)}

It's port is throttled at 100 Mbps. That would be the maximum combined speed. If you are using 5 Ghz band on a single device, yes you should get up to 100 Mbps.

Right.
But even after recharging with 150 mbps plan, I am only getting a maximum of 50 mbps. Which means I am not even getting 50% of the promised speed. I wouldn't have bothered even if I was getting 100mbps with 150mbps plan or 50mbps with 75mbps plan. But what I am getting is too low.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions!

My subscription expires today. I will not recharge for the time being. I have already placed a complaint regarding the speed. Let's see. If they provide a router upgrade for free and it fixes the speed, then I will continue with them. Otherwise I will move to Railwire.

Could you please do one test through Fast.com as well?

In my case sometimes I get the intended speed on Ookla Speedtest. But through other Speedtest sites it shows the actual speed which I am getting while using the internet (streaming, downloading, etc).
I think they have set it up such that it shows the plan's promised speeds while doing Speedtest through Ookla. While throttling everything else.

Tried changing it via TP-Link advanced settings > DHCP Settings > DNS Server

No change in speed.

I just downloaded a 1GB file from Test Files and i am getting the promised speeds.

Asked a few neighbours about it.
One of them told that they used to get only 10-20 mbps with 50 mbps plan. Now they have stopped recharging.
And the other people that I asked are not that tech savvy. They don't know about speeds and stuff. They just said that it's good and handles their daily Social media and YouTube needs fine.
