Wireless connections in particular are impacted by other items on the same frequency, the construction materials used to build your home and the distance of your device from your wireless access point. The distance from their connecting office to your home as well as others that use the same service in your neighborhood can have a dramatic impact on your actual speeds, which is why it’s never a one-size-fits-all situation. The reason for this is that your actual speed at any given time can be impacted by numerous variables, many of which aren’t under the control of your ISP (Internet Service Provider). When you sign up for any residential Internet service, the provider charges you for a plan that provides speeds ‘up to’ a specific range. The Novitec device, in particular, makes the claim that theirs is “The Wi-Fi Booster your Internet provider doesn’t want you to know about”. This common experience is why so many devices are advertised that claim they can ‘fix’ the problem you’re having by getting around the limits placed by your Internet provider.
We all rely on the Internet so much these days that when there are performance issues, it’s aggravating. Much of the information contained herein may have changed since posting. This question was answered on March 4, 2021. I keep seeing ads for the Novitec Wi-Fi Booster that claims it can bypass an Internet provider’s speed caps and provide faster connections is this legit?
