Help, need advice! I currently have a 200mbps home internet plan with ISP provided modem/router, when I run a speed test over wired connection I get the speed I'm paying for sometimes more.... (alien.top)

however when I run a speed test over wifi connection it's usually in the 45mbps range. Will buying and using a 3rd party wireless router allow me to get the full speed or close to the full speed I'm paying for over Wi-Fi?

45-50MB is the max speed of a 2.4ghz channel, please make sure you're on 5ghz
