Question Not getting full wifi speeds

[AxelSSS]

So i have realised that when i am downloading games or anything in general i only receive around 500-600 mbps when my wifi can clearly go up to around1.5 Gbps.
I am using a wireless connection whit my pcie card showing up as Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz, i have no possible option to be getting a wired connection as of today but i am deciding if i should.
My router is a Netgear but i have forgot what model it is.

While you may have a 1.2Gbs connection to your access point your speed is limited by the bandwidth that you pay for and the fact that wireless is only single duplex.

Alright so what you're saying is that i could achieve higher wifi speeds by upgrading to a wired connection?
I am pretty sure that its not my bandwidth that's holding my speeds down as my wifi plan is suited for around 2-3 gbps for each device up to around 20 devices and that is if they are all using the wifi simultaneously

What specific maximum bandwidth are you paying your provider for? No matter how fast you can connect to your access point you cannot in any way shape or form exceed what your provider gives you.

If i can remember correctly as of right now its around 80-125 gbps as we had a higher bandwidth but it just became a little bit overkill and now worth the price

80-125 gigabits is not even possible. If you mean 80-125 megabits then that too is wrong since you get over 600.

Test with ethernet and compare. The speeds you are getting are very common for wifi6e using 160mhz.

Maybe other than a bigger number do you really need anything faster. How many minutes per month will it save you. You really do not want to use wifi for gaming if you have any other option. Since most times you are playing the game rather than downloading it bandwidth is not very important. Even online games only need 1mbps BUT they need very consistent latency and wifi get random spikes due to interference.

I apologize as i realized i have made a mistake, i didn't know exactly how much my bandwidth was as i am not the one playing and or controlling the wifi plan but i just spoke to thw owner and he says that we are paying for around 750mbps to 1gbps and that's my mistake for not making it clearer.

And you're getting 600mbps on WiFi?

Consider yourself blessed!
