Incredibly slow wireless performance - hardwire is fine
Recently our wireless speeds are below 50 mbps (though sometimes up to 130-ish). We pay for up to 500 mbps. I thought the issue was with our ISP until today when I ran a speedtest on an ethernet conn...
have you tried changing wireless channels?
Or factory resetting and reinstalling?
Ah. I just tried a new channel on my 5gh network and now getting download speeds up to 240. Huge improvement. Is that the highest I should expect from this router? With ethernet speeds of ~500
