WiFi 6E Problems - RAXE500
I've recently configured my Netgear RAXE500 router and experiencing issues with very slow speeds and low signal with Wi-Fi 6E and I'm unable to authenticate with WPA3-Personal using the Intel AX210 m...
WPA3 on 6Ghz requires something additional called SAE Hash to Element, it won't be available till the Windows 10 21H1 update this summer and will require a newer Intel driver supporting that function. This is not a router issue as Plemans pointed out.
Bal, thank you for an exceptionally well-written overview of your current experience with the RAXE500. Two follow-up questions….
[1] Is the LAG connection between the router and the CM1100 modem working well?
[2] Is the LAG connection between the router and the Synology DS420+ working well? Is the performance of the NAS noticeably improved as a result?
And, one point of clarification: I do not believe NETGEAR has claimed that the RAXE500 provides better signal range on the 6GHz band? The only relevant comment I have seen is in the product datasheet: “6GHz band is limited to indoor range.”
