Slow Wifi Speeds Nighthawk x10
Just upgraded my router from the Asus RT-AC68U which was giving me my rated speed through time warner wired or wireless and now with this X10 i just set up today and installed newest FW as advised to...
Hi HanYol0,
As long as the modem provides the correct speed from your ISP, then the router should be able to work fine.
What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have?
Did you perform a factory reset after the FW update and set up from scratch?
What wireless modes are you using?
Try Single mode N on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz with WPA2 and AES only.
What client device are you using to test wireless speeds?
Were you seeing better results with the Asus router using same device?
FYI regarding your SB6190:

I have time warner oceanic here in HI and my speeds are 300+ down and 20 up. I have not performed a factory reset after initial FW update no. Currently on the 5ghz link and both the 2.4 and 5ghz give me same download speed over wifi but as soon as i connect directly to router i get around 350 down and 22 up.
Currently testing speeds with speakeasy and speedtest. My speed results with the asus router were 300+ down and 20 up as normal.
I have an SB6183 here as well and just hooked it up along with performing a factory restet on router and still <30mb down speed on wifi:(
where do i find single mode N for 2.4 and 5 please?
So i changed the channel from auto on 2.4ghz to 2 and 6 each with speedtests in between and was about to get close to 200 down. Being on auto, is the limiting factor here interferance? 2 and 6 have to work together to provide my speed?
