Nighthawk RAX80 slow WiFi
Hi, I have gigabit internet and just replaced my router with the RAX80. I updated it but somehow get just 400mbs in wired connection straight to the router. How can I fix this?
I just brought this RAX80 router and i'm having similar isssues. I get 1GB connection from my ISP and when I run a speed test from the router and get 940 mbps consistently. However, I’m testing other devices and only getting around 150mbps (disable QoS) and about 200mbps (enabled QoS) that's less than my older router.
Same issue here.
The speed from a speedtest directly on the router shows appropriate speeds (~900Mbps), but I get 50Mbps or less on a regular basis. I tried downgrading to the .40 version of the firmware. Enabling QoS and doing a factory reset.
Anyone have any other suggestions? I definitely regret getting this router.
