Orbi WiFi Speed
Hello,
I had new internet service installed today (300 Down / 20 Up). Speed tests from the Orbi app and hardwired to the router show great speeds. However, when I run any kind of speed test when connected to WiFi, the best download speed I can get is 13MB. This is from broth iPhones and laptops. Both Beamforming and Mu-MIMO are enabled.
Not sure if there is a problem with a setting or if this is related to a firmware issue. Current firmware is 2.1.2.18.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben

Re: Orbi WiFi Speed
Have you tried to remove all device from the wifi and then connect just 1 device and test the speed? it could be some older wifi device slowing the network down.

Re: Orbi WiFi Speed
I was able to resolve the problem on my own.
ADVANCED -> ADVANCED SETUP -> Enable WMM
Somehow multimedia settings enable more bandwidth?

Re: Orbi WiFi Speed
WMM is enabled by default.
You should not disable WMM.
