Any other devices you've tried testing on?
have you tried a simply factory reset and reinstall?
- daniostrSep 05, 2020Aspirant
Yes, just now.
And I receive sround 280 mbps.
But the results in the nighthawk app is around 800~ mbps.
It is better but not very satisfying, should I replave the model?

Have you tried downgrading the firmware?
Or do you have ipv4/6 setup?
make sure access control is off as well.

downgraded firmware
Or do you have ipv4/6 setup? no
access control is off.
When I plug the lan directly from the modem(bridge)
I recevie 900 mbps. I don't understand why the router losses so much speed.
