Slow XR1000 Wifi - Solid LAN
Evening All- I am at a loss as to what the bottleneck is. I need suggestions. 1) My previous wi-fi router was wrecked by lightning earlier this week - it would speedtest on Ookla around 450d/...

I believe I have this sorted out. I am unsure what fixed the speeds but they have corrected themselves.
One of the following fixed my issue:
- I ran through the setup wizard again on the DumaOS / Settings
- I updated the known internet speeds
- I changed the 5g channel to 44 (under settings / wireless setup).
I am now getting 500d/100u which is slightly more than my service tier.
Thank you-
Benjamin
