NETGEAR Nighthawk 6-Stream AX5400 WiFi 6 Router wireless speeds are slow
My wireless speeds standing right next to the router are only 140 mbps. My ISP plan supports up to 500 mbps. I live in a small apartment less than 1500 sq feet. In the bedroom the speeds are 90 mbps....
Recommend you install and use the Ookla stand alone test application on mobile, Windows, and IoS devices. This application avoids using a web browser for the data path. Results in much more consistent data. Available in the various play stores.
If you install the Netgear mobile application, there is a test section to measure throughput from your ISP to the router. Use this as a reference value to compare against your Wi-Fi tests.
yes, I am using ookla to measure the speeds in different rooms. I have the netgear mobile app which when I measure my speeds using that, it says that they are significantly higher than when I use ookla.
