Netgear M6 Pro MR6450 vs MR6550 Very Slow Download Speeds firmware NTGX65_12.01.31.00
I have both of these routers in the U.K Netgear M6 Pro MR6550 Unlocked (US) version Netgear M6 Pro MR6450 Unlocked getting very poor downloads & upload speeds compared to MR6450 on Three UK 5G Net...
I even had a MR6500-1TLAUS on Telstra Version which was working perfect on the same Three UK 5G network was getting 5G speeds close to MR6450
MR6550-100PAS - working with No 5G speeds
MR6450-100EUS - working perfect with 5G
MR6500-1TLAUS - working perfect with 5G
I assumed the MR6550 was supposed to be more superior with the most network bands has advertised by Netgear and latest 2023 release model
could you please let me know is there any firmware in works to fix the issue the same which was done on did other versions please JohnPeng
MR6550-100PAS - working with No 5G speeds
MR6450-100EUS - working perfect with 5G
MR6500-1TLAUS - working perfect with 5G

MR6550-100PAS is targeting US and Canadian carriers, the band and combo supports are different from Telstra and EU SKU. MR6550-100PAS can support roaming to EMEA countries, but the device performance will be compatible with SKUs targeting EMEA contries.
Thanks

Thanks for replying MR6550-100PAS so it can support roaming to EMEA countries that is including UK too but the device doesn’t perform has it should do I’m getting No 5G speeds at all on the Three UK 5G Network which is biggest 5G network provider in the United Kingdom although it show up on the router LCD connected to 5G but No 5G Speeds maximum speeds I’m getting are 50-60mb download compared to 600mbs + on the other Netgear M6 Pro MR6450 MR6500 routers even on the Netgear M1 I was getting 150mb Netgear claim the MR6550 can roam over 125 countries can you please check via JSON file
what can be the issue- JohnPeng this MR6550-100PAS cost $999 and claims it is a “unlocked model” and can roam in over 125+ countries as Netgear advertises it on the website then surely it should work in the United Kingdom, which is a major country in Europe
MR6550-100PAS has the most 4G 5G network bands show on Netgear website specifications even more than MR6450-100EUS version
The MR6500-1TLAUS is targeting a Australian Telstra carrier only and doesn’t specify it’s a“unlocked model” has the lowest least 4G 5G bands but still it works perfect on 5G in U.K unlike the MR6550-100PAS which Netgear claims it’s a “unlocked model ” and covers 125+ countries and yet it doesn’t work in the United Kingdom on the UK biggest 5G Network Provider “Three” Why does it show on the MR6550 router it’s connected to 5G but I don’t get the 5G download speeds only very low 4G speeds it doesn’t make any sense I believe this issue needs to be fixed via a firmware update
