Question Why the wifi access in McDonald's is 40 mb per second but my home unlimited 4g lte router 12 mb per seconds only?

Why?

 

[DSzymborski]

The most likely reason McDonald's has faster internet is that they have faster internet.

I was going to say the same thing but I believe I was over my limit of smart-ass replies for the week. Lol

Why?

The reason is easy. You get the level (speed) of service based on what you subscribe to (pay for), of course limited by what is available in your local area.

Move to McDonalds and stay here for Internet under whatever reason

Jokes aside - either your mobile data plan is limited or mobile communication coverage in your area is not sufficient. And test your LTE router in different locations at home. A year ago friend asked to help with similar problem. Turned out his home was total blackout for mobile internet coverage. Except the top of kitchen fridge, where he got stable 75 Mbit/s. That router is still on fridge and works like charm.

Also if you live in town/suburb where majority of neighbors around are customers of your current mobile internet provider, network congestion decimate mobile communications to crawl. It is real issue in my country and it get much worse with Covid lock-down when people moved to work from home. Another friend who live in such suburb, asked why their mobile internet in last month became impossibly slow without any reason. Turned out that nearly all suburb use the same provider and congestion slowed internet speed to 2-4 Mbit/s. Few other mobile provider customers around still had 60-75 Mbit/s internet speed with ease. Something to think about falling for nice promises of some advertising campaign.

I pay around 80 bucks, and they said it's unlimited, how come it's slow?, it should be faster than McDonald's and nasa servers

Unlimited is usually in terms of how much data you download, not speed.

Mm, true, I live in the building inside a flat, the wifi bssds does that shrink in my internet and second thing I live in a city with some buildings in it that's why my internet is so slow compared to McDonald's McDonald's uses cable connection instead 4g lte connection!

And I wonder why my internet is too slow, wished I had money, my life would been better

 

[carocuore]

Though 4Mbps is more than 4 times faster than my connection lol

Also can't you pay for home internet rather than mobile?

 

[Co BIY]

Probably ordered the Biggie! size.

I pay for fastest internet available if I had 300 bucks even!

Mcdonalds = Fiber or Cable Internet, and they throttle each user to 40mbps.

Your House = Cellular LTE which is not very good. 12mbps is typical for 4G in most areas. If you live in an area which can't get anything but cellular or DSL, then consider signing up for STARLINK. https://www.starlink.com/ It's low orbit satelite service, not to be confused with ultra high orbit like garbage hughesnet. Starlink will have lower latency than cellular while offering much higher bandwidth.

 

[Krotow]

For single user Starlink monthly prices from 100$ and above plus 500$ upfront cost for client side hardware seems a bit too expensive. However for small town in middle of nowhere or suburb area where inhabitants can pay, it look very nice option. Avoid furry freeloaders in antenna area and you will be fine.
