Re: Nighthawk R7000 Slow WiFi speed

I installed the update that showed up last week, V1.0.9.60_10.2.60 and like the prior release that came out the week or so before my WiFi is working fine, along with the VPN function on my IOS devices. I know that doesn't help you just passing it along that for me at least the last two releases fixed my WiFi and VPN issues.

What router did you buy? I will do the same, this is unacceptable.

I bought Googles and they are more value for the money.

I know .60 is being made out to be the devil on some other threads, but I too am seeing great wifi speeds with this update. In fact, my 2 year old Nighthawk never achieved the max throughput of my ISP until this release. Using Comcast xfinity 250MPS plan, and since updating to 0.60, I am getting 250-290 in about 3/4s of my house on 5Ghz. Previously, best I ever got was around 120, usually 70ish.

The latest firmware ending in .60.  Causing problems for some, in my case it's been awesome.
