RB970 Slow IoT network
Hi, I've been trying to diagnose issues with some of my devices - specifically Nest cameras. I set my IoT network to 2.4Ghz. When I connect an iphone 14 to the normal SSID I get around 280Mb...
Since most IoT devices are not high performing devices, I don't think the IoT network is tuned for higher speeds like the main WLAN.
I didn't think the "IoT Network" was an actually network and uses the same radio as the regular 2.4Ghz network. I thought the only difference was the SSID and what band the network identifies itself as.

Correct. There is one 2.4G radio, which broadcasts the primary, guest, and IoT SSIDs. All on the same WiFi channel.
