Unknown. We need more information on your network.Hi All,
I called my service provider and they said my wifi service is currently 30mb. They said I could upgrade to 100mb. My question is...does increasing to mb boost the wifi signal in my house or does it just speed up the transfer of data? Or both?
Thanks,
Dave
I don't live in a rural area. I described my situation incorrectly. I have an ethernet cable and use a router.Unknown. We need more information on your network.
Most people don't have WIFI as the link to the ISP. Do you live in a rural area ?
OK. If you have a wired connection of some kind to your ISP, then we need a model number of your router to determine if you can handle a 100Mbit connection from your ISP.I don't live in a rural area. I described my situation incorrectly. I have an ethernet cable and use a router.

In general the speed and distance the signal goes is not related. People that try to combine the concepts is what makes things confusing.
So in your case the signal will not go farther. The signal may or may not be faster depending on the maximum rates of your wifi radios in the router. If you plug in with a ethernet cable then you should get the full speed. Note if you were to get a internet speed above 100mbps you need to have 1gbit wan and lan ports in the router otherwise the port will limit it.
Your Zhome device has gigabit ethernet ports and AC wireless. It should be able to handle 100Mbit internet speeds no problem.The router is a Zhone model 6768-w1-na-0cc. I see in the spec sheet that it supports 10/100 mbps.
