Ripetitore lento
Salve a tutti,
il mio ripetitore appena installato non viaggia al massimo delle potenzialità della mia rete wifi. Come router ho un fritzbox 7530 che in 5ghz mi dice che sta lavorando a 866 Mbps e dal menu di configurazione del netgear riceve a 780Mbps e fino a qui va benissimo.
Quando mi collego al netgear (solo sui 5ghz) dal pc o dallo smartphone non si reisce a superare 115 Mbps in download e 154 Mbps in upload. I due dispositivi (router e ripetitore) sono a circa 7 mt di distanza e non ci sono ostacoli in line d'aria tra di loro mentre tra ripetitore e pc ci sono al max un paio di mt sempre senza ostacoli particolari.
Quali impostazioni e prove posso fare per risolvere? grazie

A couple things.
1. LInk speed isn't the same as throughput speed. Your actual throughput speed is usually 55-65% of what the link speed is.
2. wireless repeaters cut throughput in half (for single/dual band devices). They do this because they have to use the same chip to go router----extender and then extender------device and they can't work at the same time. So it cuts the speed in half.
3. Stand where the extender is and test speed directly off your router. Then cut that speed in half. Thats roughly what the extender is going to be putting out. Extenders are great at getting wifi to dead spots but they aren't that great if you've already got wifi coverage to an area.
Again, this is all for single/dual band extenders. The tribands have a dedicated wireless backhaul that preserves a lot of that wireless speed.
