16-19 Mbps is a fairly common real-world speed for 802.1g Wi-Fi. If you want to increase the speed of your Wi-Fi, then you may have to step up to 802.1n or 802.1ac. You may need to upgrade to a new wireless router.

If you are living in the U.S., an Internet speed of 16-19 Mbps is around average and may be perfectly fine for one computer/tablet/smartphone device. If you have several devices that, collectively use all 40 Mbps, then great. If you are really only using 19 Mbps, then you are wasting your money.
