I know absolutely nothing about routers.
I have a Cisco-Linksys WRT54GS
I for 100mbs and I get about 11mbs in my room and 20mbs in my living room.
Will upgrading my router get me faster speeds? if so what router do you recommend?

I pay for 100mbs*

Install DD-WRT
Your router caps out at 54mbps in a lab setting with perfect RF conditions, the ONLY way you'll get more than ~20-30mbps is if you upgrade your router.
AC1900 routers are a good place to start.

Shut the fuck up you dumb nigger faggot, DDWRT isn't going to change the fact it's over a decade old router.

Yes, you need to upgrade. The CPU is too slow and even wired connections will top out at around 30 Mbps. I suggest getting a WRT1200AC, I got one after realizing my WRT54GL.couldn't handle the speed and it's been working wonderfully.
>>61266277
It will barely squeeze an extra 10 Mbps (wired) out of it if he overclocks.

I'm not topping out at 30mbps though. I get 11mbps to 20mbps. Will I still see a speed increase by upgrading?
>>61266359
... are you actually mentally challenged?
>>61266374
No I just don't understand internet speeds and routers very much.
>>61266390
Obviously
He's saying in the best case scenario that router could do about 30mbps, the fact you're getting less than that is normal because of how shitty and old that router is.
Yes upgrading your router will fix this.

whatever you do, don't run stock firmware. use openwrt, dd-wrt or something....
