wireless Internet speed variations

My wireless Internet speeds vary by location within my home. Since I'm lowering my download/upload speeds (current plan is the 500Mbps/50Mbps) to a slower one, I'm wondering if the speed test results will change proportionately or if they'll stay more constant. Thoughts?

Results I currently get (close to modem, behind concrete wall)

    If you haven't already done so, install the Fizz Wi-Fi application. You can then perform a network diagnosis.

    Hi, you could try these solutions

    Use Ethernet for key devices (PC, smart TV, console).
    Upgrade your router if it’s older than 5 years.
    Place router centrally, away from concrete or metal.
    Add a mesh system if coverage is uneven.
