EX7000 in AP mode - really slow LAN speeds (12-13 Mbps only)
I have a fairly simple home network using a Netgear R8500 router and a 300Mbps down / 20Mbps up internet connection. Across the house I have an ethernet cable that runs to my main TV and I've had it ...
I have this same issue. My EX7000 is connected via ethernet to my R7000. I have a PC hard wired to the EX7000 and can get download speeds over 300 Mbps. I connect my phone to the wifi and I can't get over 30. I connect the same phone to my R7000 and I get almost 200. I tried going back one version with the firmware, but that did not help so I upgraded back to the current firmware. Nothing appears to get me the speed I should be getting from this hard wired AP.
I got it working now. All I did was uncheck the "Enable 20/40 Mhz Coexistence (2.4GHz)". Speeds up to 300 Mbps now :-)
