Nighthawk X6 R8000 horrible range - 35 feet.
Ok was excited about this Router because I saw reviews of people using this in their 3,500 sq. foot 2 story house. Yet I have updated to the latest firmware last night and currently get broken up...
It should be located on same page as QoS. Personally, I would not use QoS.
Always reset to factory after a firmware upgrade.
Always pick a wirless channel (1,6,11 in 2.4ghz NA - 150+ 5ghz)
Ensure WMM is enabled on your router.
Get the router up high. Don't leave it on a desk or in a closet.
The Genie app on a laptop / desktop / mac has been know to create problems, not only on the client, but also router / network problems. So close or unstall Geneie and connect to the router via a browser.
Thanks for the suggestions...I will try a wireless channel vs. Auto.
Where is WMM located on the router ?
