Throttling Devices - RBK53
Hello, I've read a few threads on here about throttling but was unable to get the info I need. Is it normal for the RBK50 series to throttle all my connected devices to approx 10-20Mbps? When I ...

I re enabled WMM and it appears that did it.
I must have tested WMM on the old FW. It wasnt working very well with my ring cameras before hence the reason I had it off. It appears this new FW version is more stable, inclduing with the use of WMM,
For the record just in case anyone looks this up, here are my settings:
Disabled 20/40 MHz Coexistence
Enabled WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia) settings
Enabled Implicit BEAMFORMING - Boosts WiFi speed, reliability, & range for all mobile devices
Enabled MU-MIMO
Disabled Fast-Roaming
Disabled Daisy-Chain Topology
Disabled Armor and Circle
I'm finally hitting up to 200+Mbps on my devices again.
Thanks for taking the time to help me out. I had tried these settings before but it helped going through it again.

-Beamforming and MIMO have been disabled and enabled. Beamforming should be enabled always.
-WMM has been enabled and set back to disabled (normally what I run) WMM should be enabled always for best wifi operation and performance. You'll probably see bad operation with it disabled.
-Armor, Circle, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Have all been enabled then disabled. Use 40Mhz only, unless you have some old legacy wifi devices that don't support 40Mhz.
I've pretty much tried a variattion and combination of all those enabled or disabled to no avail.
My next step is turning off the 2 RBS and then trying a hardwired connection. Yes see if the RBR alone exhibits problems.
Thanks
