ORBI RBR50 Slow wifi speed over Wifi
Hi Guys- I bought this router on Dec 23rd 2019 and since that day, i have called in netgear like 20 time as they have horrible cuistomer support. I consistantly,am having low speed on my wifi. I ...
Well I applied the settings you suggested and right after applied those i touched to almost 350 mbps but later since morning i am back to low speed.
As a comparison I am attaching 2 side by side speed tests. one is Lan and other is over wifi.
I applied all the settings as told.
Have you tried using a wifi scanning program to do a site survey of the wifi channels in use at your location? It could be that your neighbors are using the same channels you are using causing interference and thus low speeds.
- How do i do that?
Download the Wifi Explorer app.
WiFi Explorer gathers configuration and capability information about all the networks it discovers and presents it on an easy-to-use, intuitive user interface. Information includes network name (SSID), BSSID, vendor, country code, channel, band, security configuration, supported data rates, number of streams, and much more.
well, i ran wifi explorer, result atteched. set my 2.4 on Channel 8 and 5 Ghz at channel i think 46 and then ran speed test. One has internal speed on lan (480MBPS) and other is what i am still getting (164 MBps) on my WIFi.
any more suggestions?
Thanks
