R6250 Internet speed

I have comcast 150Mbps service.  In 2.4 I get 50 Mbps and in 5.0 i get 150 Mbps.  Is this normal or is there a way to get 150 Mbps in 2.4 also?

Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: R6250 Internet speed

Yeah, that's normal. 2.4GHz is slower than 5GHz. But 2.4GHz has better range.

Re: R6250 Internet speed

Not just normal. The whole point of 5 GHz. It is designed to be faster.
