AirPort Time Capsule 802.11ac limited to 100mbps w/Gigabit Fiber connection
Hello all,
I have had a Verizon FiOS connection for the past 5 years of 150/150. I bypassed the Fios Quantum Gateway G1100 wifi and attached a AirPort Time Capsule 802.11ac to serve the wifi. Everything has been working great. We are usually getting connection speeds in the house of around 100mbps on wifi, which I felt was inline with the service we were paying for.
Fast forward to last night. I finally upgraded our FiOS connection to 1GB. Everyone was happy that we upgraded but when I run the speed test on the wifi network, nothing has changed. Still getting around 100/100 to all tested wifi devices.
I know the Time Capsule is capable of serving more than this. I connected hard-wired to the router and am getting around 850/700, so I know the speed upgrade has been done. My next step was to turn on the Verizon wifi and test that. But that leads me to part 2 of my question.
The Time Capsule is old and the HD is likely starting to go bad (have had to recreate backups 2-3x over the past 2 months and am getting constant verification errors), so I think an upgrade of the whole system is warranted. Being out of the market for some time, can anyone make some apple-friendly recommendations for replacing both the wifi and the wireless backup? I do like that feature and would rather not tether HDs to all of our macs.
I have heard good things about Plume but that's about it. I will certainly do some research but wanted to get some opinions of the people on this forum too. Thanks for the help!
