Nighthawk AC1900 C7000 WiFi Cable Modem Router - SLOW WIFI SPEED
Hi. Looking for some help. Hardware: Nighthawk AC1900 C7000 WiFi Cable Modem Router ISP: Xfinity 300mbs plan Wired download speeds are good. 300-350 mbps. Wifi speeds are terribly slow 1-3 mbps...
I am testing iPhone and iPad and a Mackbook.
I did a factory restet and switched back and fourth from 5GHz to 2.4GHz a few times. I am gettin better download speeds with 2.4GHz now - 40-60 mbps. 5GHz us still 1-3 mbps.
Now after the reset 2.4GHz seems to be fast enough for streaming etc. Am I capped here? Is there a way to make it faster?
2.4ghz is hitting its expected speeds (its slower than 5gh).
Your 5ghz should be faster. Have you tried a different channel on 5ghz?
Have you a windows or android device? Maybe its a mac issue.
