Qty of (23) WAX625 on GSM4352 with variances on speed tests

We have a Qty of (23) WAX625 installed throughout our space. All are running firmware 10.8.9.7 and selected as manage on the cloud. All of these WAX625 run back to the GSM4532 and are powered POE. The health of all of these seem okay. We are noticing when doing a speed test on Netgear Insight for a WAX625 (387 Upload and 899 download) it is very different from a PC connection to the WAX625 (340 download and 13 upload). This is all on an ATT ISP 1Gb setup. Are there basic setup settings in the WAX625 or GSM4532 to make this more even? We are just looking to get an even internet spread across the (23) WAX625 being mobile, working around onsite. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Hi Latchman 

     

    I would suggest relying more on the speed test results run on the client connected to the AP, as this defines the end user experience.

    To get the best results, ensure clients are connected on 5GHz and have a good signal strength from the AP. Also, check if your deployment has no channel interference from neighboring APs. If possible, please change the channel width to 80MHz (without channel overlap).

     

    Thanks!
