rax40 bridged slow wifi
I have been noticing my wifi slow down recently and I can't seem to figure out why. I have my centrylinkC1100T set up bridged with an Ax4 RAX40 ax3000 router. I am getting only half of the speed that...
are you connecting to 2.4ghz or 5ghz?
2.4ghz is much much slower than 5ghz and the speeds you're getting would be understandable if you're on the 2.4ghz.
For faster speeds, make sure your on the 5ghz band.
- On 2.4ghz I get 50mbps, On 5ghz get 70mbps when I run a speed test 5ft from router, is this normal? Or should it be more like 90mbps?
if you run the centurylink modem/router in router mode and put the rax in access point mode, what speeds do you get then?
it wouldn't be the first time a ISP supplied modem/router didn't have a proper bridge mode
- Sorry I'm a noob at this , but I currently have my modem/router from centrylink in transparent bridge mode and all I did on my nighthawk router was set up the PPPOE. I will try AP mode.
