R7960P 2.4ghz slow
I recently upgraded internet speed to 400mbps from 100mbps. Immediately had great results with 5ghz reaching 400+speeds. However 2.4ghz actually became slower than before I upgraded. Speedtest.net...
What wireless device are you using to speed test with on 2.4Ghz?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update on the router?
Is 20/40Mhz Coexistence enabled or disabled?

Speedtest.net showed avg speed of 55-75 mpbs with 400mbps upgrade. Is that normal or should speed be higher for 2.4? Spectrum said line connection is fine so must be the router. I rely on the 2.4 for security system cameras. Firmware is updated as of 05/13/2021.
Thoughts?
