This Wi-Fi 6 AP my ISP provided almost takes full advantage of the 1000/500 plan I have. I likely shouldn't be surprised given gigabit isn't exactly new anymore but still!

If that’s an AP you mean you are getting those speeds over wifi? That’s very good.
That's happening to me currently. I swapped out my Xfinity gateway for a Motorola MB8611 modem and a TP-Link AX-3000 router, and my speeds dropped from 500gb or so to barely 100. I get a low as 20 in another room.
I'm sending it back and just sticking to the ISP gear.
At least time give you a better router unifi is shit the modem/router combo is trash.
Welppp
Comments full of people stating the ISP is the cause of the 930/940 Mbps out of a gig line.
You’d think people on this subreddit would know better and understand overhead.
1/3 of a second of bufferbloat is terrible. You can have 60ms or less with better wifi. I fear your result in another room would be much worse.
My ATT Fiber gateway is…fine. Sends WiFi 6 to (almost) the entire house and the only way I could do better is to run wires and rebuild the whole network.
Even has a 4x4 antenna array for the 5ghz band, so I would have to spend some decent money to get a better standalone router.
I hate Comcast with a passion, but honestly their modem/router/gateway (and extenders) they gave me is better than anything I’ve had.
