XR1000 SLOW WIFI SPEEDS
Recently just bought a XR1000 gaming router, after setup ive noticed i was getting 85 download which i am paying for 900 down, but getting full 24 up. Ive just set my computer up and hard wired it to...
Are you using SmartConnect? Could you please try disabling that if you are and connect to the 5GHz channel, then re-test speeds from nearby the XR?
Smart connect is disable as well. I’ve tried turning in on to see if would help with speeds, nothing. So I turned it back off
What device are you testing your speeds with over wireless? Is it definitely connecting to the 5Ghz channel and not the 2.4Ghz channel?
- I’m using a iPhone XS max, air book pro both on 5ghz and right next to the router.
Could you please go to QoS and under Bandwidth allocation, hit 'Reset Allocation' and make sure that Share Excess is enabled from the three-line menu?
After that, retest your speeds and let me know if you're still having the same issue.
