Slow transfer speed on new router, what could be wrong?
Got a new router today, trying to replace my Airport Extreme, got the TP-LINK Archer C3200 on black friday sale, triband with smart connect. Sounded good. But im experiencing allot slower both re...
Your Airport Extreme should be AC1300, the TP Link is AC1300 on each ot the two 5 Ghz bands. But your PC can only use one of these bands at a time.
Multiple clients: A PC, your phone, a tablet, etc all accessing the NAS at the same time. SmartConnect would allow some of these devices to connect on band-1, the others to connect to band-2. That would increase throughput if they were all using the WiFi at the same time.
You could try connecting to the tp-link on channel 44 instead of channel 100, and see if that helps.
Strange, rebooted my mac, and now seems faster on TP-LINK.
