Night Hawk MR60 Slow WiFi
Very frustrated with this system. I have browsed through the forums and nothing seems to help. Firmware is V1.1.7.132_2.0.64. I have a Arris SB6190 cable modem through Xfinity. Wired from the MR6...
Be sure to update the MS first the MR lastly. Try a full power OFF of the MR and MS for 1 minute then back ON afterwards.
All devices have been powered down and brought back up. I have opened the Nighthawk app to assure my PC is connected to the MR60. Running a speed test on the MR60 directly connected to the modem exceeds the speed I am paying for. I am getting 868.69 down and 23.8 up. From the PC to the MR60 my FIRST test hit 655 down. However, every test after than at least 10 other tests are barely getting over 100mbps. After looking into it, my PC had switched its connection to the furthest MS in the house. I don't think it's possible to force the connection to stay to the closest device. I've changed the Roaming aggressiveness settings on the Wireless adapter to the lowest. We'll see if that helps.
