Terrible wifi speed on Orbi RB750 + 2 satellites
I have an Orbi RB753 setup with an RBR750 (firmware V4.6.5.14_2.0.54) and 2 RBS750's on the same firmware version. I also have a Cisco VPN router connected to the Orbi providing VPN services to a wo...
And this is with the wireless device connected to the RBR and the RBS turned off?
What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?Be sure that WMM is enabled. Also try setting CTS to 2347. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
What is the connection rate seen on the Mac if you press the OPT and then right click on the wifi icon on the top tool bar?
And to be sure that wired speed connected at the RBR is to spec?
What is the model # of the Cisco router in front of the RBR?
It's not recommended to have two routers on the same line. Can cause problem such as your seeing. Try the RBR in AP mode with the Cisco router. Be sure that any wifi radios on the Cisco router are fully disabled.
It's a Cisco C1111-PW but it's behind the Orbi so, cable modem to Orbi to Cisco. I'll disable the wifi on the Cisco and test that out also.
Or power OFF the Cisco C1111 unit and test.
Lets not presume this user has same problem as others until we have troubleshot there issue first.
I wouldnt' "Bet" your advise. :smileytongue:
I powered off the Cisco router and retested. 21.0 down, 21.3 up.
