This is easy to fix.

If one needs to push more than 150Mbps upload out of their home gateway,
get 802.11ac or run a cable from your favorite spot at the house to a
cheap but fast home switch you can pick up from the store.

The more difficult problem is how your ISP offers you onward uplink to
match what you can push out of your home, as this thread is addressing.
