5Gh Speed Limitation - RAXE450
RAXE450 with Beta FW 1.0.9.78 Issue: I can't get faster than 960 Mbps on my devices. I still have my old WiFi AX6000 router and my devices got 1.2Gbps. So I plugged it back in and got the same spee...
- Plus the RAXE450 is only a 3.84gig on 5ghz (4x4 antenna is 960mbps x4=3.84gig) versus the xiaomi is 4.8gig over 5ghz (4x4 antenna, 1.2gig x 4=4.8gig) . and both have 4x4 antenna's for 5ghz. So each connection for the netgear is going to be the 960mbps link speed versus the xiaomi's 1.2gig.
Did you actually speedtest them?
That's your link speed, not a throughput test.
Actual throughput is roughly 55-65% of link speed and is different based off each devices efficiencies.
So while one might show a stronger link speed, it might not be any faster.
