(RAX45)_slow internet speed on 2.4Ghz
My model isn't listed anywhere that I've seen, but I think the RAX40 is the closest. Mine is the RAX45 6-stream wifi router. I first posted on the general Nighthawk wifi routers group. Thanks michael...

Its only speed issues on the 2.4gh?
have you tried changing which channels you were broadcasting on?
After the firmware change, did you do a factory reset and reinstall (not from a backup)?

Yes - speed issues are on 2.4 only.
I had been on channel 9 when things were going well. Promped by your question, I looked again and was back on auto. I have changed it to 11.
I did not do a factory reset, but I did reinstall the firmware.
I'm hoping the channel adjustment cleans things up. If not, I'll try a factory reset and reinstall.
