Bandwidth

You could lower me to 800 mbps but if you are going to throttle my throughput to 150-370 mbps it makes no difference what your metrics say on the bandwidth provided. 
This is consistently what I get in my house. So, if I am streaming in 2 rooms and the kids are playing online games we all buffer this is not acceptable. 
I am paying for 1GBps and before you moved me to that wirelessly, same house same router, I was averaging 500+ Mbps. Thank you for charging me more and delivering less.

No and I spent the better part of Sunday rebooting my router multiple times and trying to get previously connected devices back on the network (garage door openers, smoke detectors and thermostats) I have resorted to DVD movies so others can be on the network in the neighborhood and the house.
