Slow WIFI on RBR850
Hi. I have a RBR850. Getting 1gbit/1gbit hard wired. Only getting 360 mbit wifi. What Firmware version is currently loaded? V3.2.18.1 What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Provid...
Do you have Traffic Meter enabled by chance on the RBR?
For setting 40Mhz only, just take the check mark out of the check box for 20/40Mhz Coexistance and this sets 40Mhz only. Apple the change.
How close are you to the RBR when speed testing? 6-10 feet range?
Make sure Enable WMM is enabled and try setting 2347 for CTS. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Just checked mine when I got home. 1Gb/50Mbps ISP service.
v1 FW.
Manual channels 11 and 48.
40Mhz only.
CTS 64
Armor and Traffic Meter not enabled.
WMM enabled. Preamable Mode: Auto
Mac Book Pro 2018 placed near the RBR, 4 ft:
Checked my Iphone 12 Max as well:
Pretty good for sitting right next to the RBR. I presume as distance gains in between the devices, speeds will have some degradation which is to be expected.
I did set it to 40 MHz only.
Changed the CTS
WMM enabled
Preamable Mode: ShortTraffic meter: Off
Still the same issue. THe MBP is 3 ft from the RBR.
