Hello Tsegreti,

Thanks for your post. There are other factors that come into play when it comes to WiFi signal strength such as the building material of your home, the device being used to test WiFi strength, etc. Would you mind telling us a little more about the device(s) you're using and if you experience this issue with one device or all.

There so that's router level 2.
Even right under it to right I'm getting worse 5ghz speeds than 2ghz.
And it's been so erratic.
No metal just wood.
Please let me know what I need to do

Hello Tsegreti, 

Hope you're having a speedy recovery! I would check to see if your device requires a firmware update. If so, I would recommend a factory reset on the router after an update. I have linked the release notes to the latest firmware version below.
