Slow wireless connections RBR750

IMG_F3C587D35A7D-1.jpeg

 

Hello,

I own an RBR750 with an RBS750 satellite, and my connection is 1Gbps. However, I can only achieve this speed with a wired connection.

With wireless connections, I can reach a maximum of 600Mbps. This happens on the RBR, and it's even worse when I'm connected to the RBS.

Is there any configuration that can help me achieve a higher wireless speed?

Re: Slow wireless connections RBR750

A maximum PHY speed is 1200 Mb/s for an 80 MHz channel using a 2×2 client, leading to ideal 840 Mb/s throughput. On  a realistic distance to the router or to the satellite, you can expect a PHY speed of 864 Mb/s, leading to 600 Mb/s throughput. Does not sound wrong to me.

 

The RBS750 satellite is supposed to connect on the 5 GHz backhaul, again on 80 MHz channel bandwidth, but these are  4x4 devices. Under good conditions, this wireless backhaul can reliably take both possible access point radios (the 5 GHz and the 2.4 GHz) front haul. It's worth to review the backhaul status, and potentially relocate the satellite.

What wireless device, what wireless adapter are you testing with?

I'm testing with an iPhone 14 Pro and a notebook, and I have the same performance on both.

I'm thinking about doing a factory reset, but before I do that, I would like to know if there's any configuration I'm forgetting.
