is there a chance to get 1gb/s wi fi ac on ppoe connection on my airport extreme 2013.a software update in the near future to resolve this problem...since my speed is between 180 and 200 mb/s?

i understand that this router is Gigabit and wi fi ac new standard ,but seems like it has a problem ,no NAT thingy...so when i connect to my ppoe 1G/s internet speed that i have from my provider ,the speed i get on wi fi ac is between 170-200 mb/s (2 meters away from router)and is verry dissapoiting.

what can i do to get full speed ...atliest 800-900 mb/s.

According to SmallNetBuilder, the realistic throughput of the new 802.11ac AirPort Extreme is far lower than you might expect. This is actually true of any manufacturer's routers.

The following table represents a summary of their tests. Note specifically the Total Simultaneous Throughput, 2.4 GHz UpDown Throughput, and 5 GHz UpDown Throughput values. What you are getting on Wi-Fi seems to fit with their test results.
