Internet speed not being what it seems

Region : Singapore

Model : TL-PA2010

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP : Singtel


I use the respective utility programme for the TL-PA2010 and it shows that the rate of the internet I'm supposedly having is 168Mbps but when I use speedtest.net to check my internet speed, my download speed varies from 25mbps to 45 mbps only. Please help as I'm having trouble streaming videos smoothly. I had this problem since the beginning as well, and I'm not too good with electronics.

The rate in utility is not the internet speed but transfer rate between two PA2010 units. 168Mbps is quite normal.
The real internet speed is given by your ISP. You'd better test it bypassing powerline devices and make a comparison.
When connecting directly to the router, if the speed is about 45mbps, to improve it, you should contact your ISP or router's support.
