I will coil up all that currently unused cat6 and RG6 in case it might be useful sometime, but I do not expect to ever use it. I am using 6 of about 100 total cables.
I have 1170 Mbps on upstream side of modem
Wired connection directly to gateway is ~920 Mbps
Wireless (checked in about 10 places around house) is low of ~750 Mbps
Im pretty happy with this.
Thanks again to everyone for all the help!
Sounds like massive gains for around $100-150 bucks in hardware ($50 in Deco) and a bit of elbow grease and sweat equity. Congrats!
