Whats the wireless device your speed testing with?
MSI and Alienware gaming laptops (both have 802.11ax wifi cards and gigabit ethernet ports). I speed tested the following two configurations and noticed the download/upload speed discrepancy for each configuration on both laptops:
- Laptop to RBR750 (router) over wifi
- Laptop wired to RBS750 (satellite) connecting to RBR750 via wireless backhaul
The discrepancy does not exist with direct wired connection to RBR750.
Whats the connection rate between this wireless device and the RBR?
When connected over wifi, the laptops are showing 1201Mbps/1201Mbps connection rates.
