Limit Speeds on Orbi WiFi?
Is there any way to limit Bandwidth on connected devices to the Mes network? I RBR40
That's a shame for such a great device, such a simple feature. I did notice there seemed to be som QoS built in as some devices who 58mb connection and others show 17Mb
I have plenty of speed with my internet company 400Mb (ability to get 1Gb) but at some times of the day things bog down as far as streaming and other things.
It's likely nor related to our bandwidth usage but something else but this limiting would have been a good way to test it :) Oh well!
The quoted "Link Rates" are a function of the WiFi connection between devices and the Orbi. They do not indicate any impact of QoS (if there is any). Devices connect at the maximum possible rate. How much data actually moves between them is entirely different. Of course, if a device reports a really low Link Rate, then it is not capable of passing a tremendous amount of data. 4K television streaming requires between 15mb and 25mb, so any device that has more than that should be able to stream.
