EX6200 'Fastlane' Poor Throughput
New EX6200 w/ f/w upgraded out of the box to 1.0.3.68.1.1.104. Unit was extensively tested in 'standard' mode, repeatering on both 2.4 and 5Ghz; throughput was ok with some small decrease from th...
Yes, saw that new f/w, but router doesn't when asked to update, and the notes on f/w release make no mention of fastlane. Opened ticket, may get a responce from that, also throughput has slightly improved after 2 days of 'burn in'. Read up on reviews and they got >30mb/s with same setup as me, wonder if they tested longer than just a day.
There are other threads from late last year such as this one which experienced slow speed due to the firmware version described in your OP. I experienced it too (last year) and I was not in AP mode but FastLane - downgrading firmware version last year got me back to full speed (>50mbps). I just wanted to clarify that there has been well known speed problem like you describe with firmware for around half-year; sorry that I'm not yet willing to be the first to try the brand new firmware which mentions AP mode speed fix.
