Full signal strength but low throughout put

So on my Satellite unit I been having issues with this from day one! I would have full signal but it seems my throughout put would be low to the point the wifi is unusable!

I use an app on my iOS device that measure throughout put speed and I get basically almost no speed at the end of my house despite having full signal, anyone exp this or know how to fix this issues my router unit works flawless!!! Just the Satellite unit that's giving me problem 😞

If you have a good WiFi connection to the Satellite but slow speeds, then the issue is with your backhaul.

 

Download iperf3 and do a throughput test between a wired device connected to the router and a wired device connected to the satellite.  You should see 500Mbps to 575Mbps.  Change the relative position of the router and satellite until you get good throughput.
