Docsis 3.0 vs. Docsis 3.1 for Cable modem router for Nighthawk C7100V
Does a Docsis 3.1 cable modem router have achieve higher wifi speeds than a Docsis 3.0 device? Please give an example.
I've tested my speed at www.speedtest.net and with Ookla's speed test app. I haven't changed wireless channels; I'm not sure how to do that. All my devices are on 5ghz. I just assumed it was a speed issue since we're experiencing weaker connections like unclear facetime calls and devices getting forced to use cellular data due to "no network connection" error. What do you think I should do?
Try a different testing site.
try dslreports.org
or switching servers on the speedtest app. It defaults to the one with lowest ping but that isn't always the best.
Also, you can download a wireless channel scanner for free usually. Try downloading on and doing a wireless channel scan.
Maybe there's interference and it needs to be switched.
The channel settings are on the same page as the SSID password.
Usually 2.4ghz is set on auto. the 5ghz you pick the channel.
If you need more help, you might do better over in the appropriate section for your device:
Cable Modems & RoutersI used a wifi channel scanner like you suggested and there's not many others on my channel. Any other suggestions?
