Nighthawk R7000 Slow WiFi speed
Wifi slowness issues. I have firmware V1.0.9.34_10.2.36, which I just updated recently.
Any idea what the fix is?
Shadowsports....I downloaded V1.0.9.34_10.2.36 to my laptop then uploaded/installed chk file through the router Advanced>Admin>Router Update>Browse to file downloaded to laptop file location. Which was the same FM I had already installed but I did that through the Geni updated within the router GUI. I have not done anything else. I had done a factory reset but that was before I downloaed the FM and installed it. So far I have not been disconnected like I was before. I will update my notes if wifi slowness has improved. Thanks shawdowsports for your input in helping me with my issue.

As noted by XRaptor29 firmwares 1.0.9.18 to 1.0.9.26 have issues. Try to upgrade to 1.0.9.34 and perform factory reset, that did the trick for me - I went from 40-50 Mbps practical speed to 500. I didn't really believe the factory reset part, but it was necessary.
