Nighthawk R8500 wifi local network bandwidth / slow

Hello community, 

 

Below my network configuration

  • All physical devices like desktop, Nvidia shield are connected with RJ45 cat6 10 Gigabits
  • Nighthawk R8500 provide only 5GHz wifi signal for Macs, tablet and phone and no have internet connection (provide only local service)
  • 2 switch ref: D-Link - DGS-105

Internet => Box (provide DHCP) => R8500 (provide wifi) => Devices

 

Problem: 

Since I've upgraded to the newest firmware V1.0.2.86_1.0.75 I encounter some wifi problems.

Based on wifi reference, my network can provide 450 Mbps (56.25 MB/s)

Local file transfert

Laptop : MacBook Pro Retina

FIle size : 1 Gb

 

MBP to NAS server

Transfer 1Gb over the network cannot exceed 18 Mo/s

Before upgrading bandwidth was around 30 Mo/s

 

Wifi / router stability

Since this upgrade I need to restart my router every week

Since this upgrade some devices are randomly detected.

 

Please note:

Recently, I have to make a reset factory because the router was not responding.

I've apply my router configuration saved to restore it.

 

Someone encounter the same problem?

Do you have any advice?
