please change 2.4G 289 Mbps
for 5GHz, you can 600 Mbps or even lower.

also i wanted to say that i live in an apt complex so any way i can enhance the ability of the radios with settings. id like to have as many options as possible, my old ISP assigned mdm was a technicolor 8715D, and it had the functionality i speak of, but just failed 2x in 3 months, wasnt gonna have it and wanted my own unit. so i bought quality.

do you want to increase the power?
easy way to reduce from HT80 to H20 which will slightly boost up power at the expense of bandwidth.
