QUOTE(oscarvxd @ Feb 8 2017, 05:26 PM) Hello fellow Unifi users, I am currently using the 30mbps package and am currently awaiting the free 50mbps upgrade soon. I am a gamer and I use Steam, so my question is, is getting a max download speed of 3mbps normal for my package? Thank you in advance! 1 Byte = 8 bits thus 30Mbps (megabits per second) = 3.75 MBps (megabytes per second) *notice the caps on the 'b', where uppercase is bytes and lowercase is bits.

Does that mean when dl single "T", my speed is capped by unifi ?

No, depends on seeder location and seeder quantity.

Does that mean when dl single "T", my speed is capped by unifi ? mb= milli bit. That's even slower than dial up MB= Mega Byte. That's how you suppose to use the unit correctly. Unifi doesn't cap torrent speed though. It really depends how fast is the seeders internet connection, number of seeders, seeders to leechers ratio.

i'm considering getting an Asus UHP router to replace the "rubbish can" DIR850L, it just doesnt hit the lower limit of the 30mbps rated speed (well, it reaches 97% of the speed but not at the minimum 30), and the AC penetration rate on the 2nd flr is relatively weak at 1 bar or 2 on my note 4
will a high gain Asus router help in my scenario? at least maybe the AC penetration power
