Mobile devices slow on WG103
Hi,
Comparing download speed between any mobile device in my network and the download speed from any laptop, i have:
* my ADSL is 8Mbps
* i do the download test for the same file from the same url
* i do the test many times
* the laptops is wifi connected too
* i tried may security settings on AP, and many channels
* i tried many mobile devices and different brands
the result is: download speed on laptops is about 6Mbps, while on mobiles it's not more than 2Mbps
Thanks..
I have 10 APs in the area, all were on channel 1 (i don't know why they don't change the channel to another free one)..
I but them on channels 1,6,11 (and will put later on 1,5,9,13) and it's better now..
I think the problem was overlapping...

Hi mhndsh,
Welcome to our community! :)
You may also try upgrading the firmware to its latest version and reset it to factory default. Please try to connect the mobile devices on an open authentication.
*Upgrading the firmware on a ProSAFE access point.

That's great! If you do have multiple APs and it is not being handled by a wireless controller, it is not advisable to use the same channel as it will only cause radio interference.
