Jan is on a 12Mbps plan. Modern-day wifi (802.11ac) can do 300Mbps. My

No, it can't. 802.11g maxes out at slightly less an 20Mbps useable, less
with more than one client active or if there's other wifi base stations
around.
Confusing Mega-bits with Mega-bytes and 2^20 with x1000 is a
marketers dream come true.
Still more than the 12Mbps, but not the numbers you're claiming.
I'm just stating what's printed on the box. And wikipedia.
And before someone starts claiming that HFC isn't up to delivering 12Mbps
at peak times, the simple fact is that I have no trouble sucking down
280Mbps over HFC no matter what time of day or night I test...
As the Communications Minister, Malcolm F'd up our NBN with his
MTM plan big time. It'll be his legacy. Other countries are different.
