I have the SXR80 router with two SXS80's and I am not getting anywhere near the speeds advertised. Even when I connnect to the router and stand right next to it I only get 280 - 300 Mbps down and half that up via Wifi.
I have a 1000/1000 Mbps line and get around 920-940 Mbps up/down cabled. The Ookla Speedtest result that test the speed of the internet connection via the Insight app confirm these numbers - so the line in is just fine...
I have mainly tested speeds using my iPhone 13 Pro Max but have also tested using other devices. Wifi results are consistently hovering around the sub 300 Mbps mark.
Here some additional info:
Hardware Version SXR80
Firmware Version V3.3.0.122
GUI Language Version V1.0.0.417
Not sure what else to share - any clues here in the community? Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!
