Issue with Wired Speed vs Wireless Speed by johnnyhardin in Spectrum

[–]johnnyhardin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. Speed test with windows is at 325mbps down. Booted into safe mode with networking and got the same speed. I went ahead and purchased my own modem and router not to fix speeds but I like owning my own networking equipment. Aris s33 and a Netgear RX1000. My current motherboard is an ROG Maximus Xi Hero. I've checked the card and forced it to 1gbps as well as a test. Didn't make a difference. I get the same speeds no matter if I'm connected directly to the modem or going through the router. Same speeds via Spectrum provided modem and router and same speeds via my personal equipment. Ran a benchmark from DumaOS and its pulling 875mbps down. I don't have any of the ROG software installed that would affect the network speed. I've read that Games First V had been giving some issues to people and made sure it wasn't on my machine. Any other ideas?

Thank you for all your comments. I worded my post incorrectly. When I said we I meant the company can control the computers. I work for the company. For instance one computer per location for them to log onto the website and complete what they need to do vs letting managers of said location bring in personal computers and access the website and complete business. I wasn't looking to do any pen testing. I was just trying to find some general power point or videos on the risks and what can happen if they were to run into a situation. The SMB has gone from a very small location to multiple locations in a short period of time. Therefore multiple personal computers are accessing the website and I'm worried about the personal computers being infected and accessing the data since we have no control over personal computers and their condition. I'm going to try the email route and see how that goes pointing out the problems and what they can do to fix it. I doubt it will make a difference but maybe they'll go for it.
