N600 C3700 Wifi Speeds Slow
I have an N600 C3700 cable modem/wifi router, and I am having trouble with the speed of my wifi connection. I have Comcast Blast 150Mbps service, and my wired connection typically gets 175-180Mbps (t...
I have read a lot here and made many changes to the setting for this modem as well as several others that seemed promising. Nothing helps.
I have even changed the MTU settings. I am having no luck. Looking for ANY assistance with this from the community or Netgear.
Hello Ripleey
What kind of speeds are you getting over wifi?
DarrenM
Mostly around 60mbps. I sent the router back and got a new one. When I plugged it in and got it set up, I got ONE reading of 160mbps and then it dropped again. Seems very very random when the speed is higher than 60, but never above 80.
Have you tried to adjust the wireless channel in the wireless settings? also do you have a older wifi device that connects to your network?
DarrenM
I have consulted with my business IT guys and worked through different
channel options with no improvement.
No older devices on the network, all iPhone 5s or better and G or N PC wifi
devices. Issue of wifi speed is the worst on 2.4 network, but typically
cripples both 2.4 and 5 ghtz down to 1 or 2 mbps at random times throughout the day.
