So been having difficulties getting decent wifi speeds in my house, and curious what I should adjust next. My setup is as follows:
Wired, I'm getting 800-900mbps. But on 2.4GHz signals, I'm typically getting 30-60mbps, occasionally a bit higher. 5GHz typically gets 80 -100. That is from a few feet from the APs.
2.4GHz Channel -set to 1, since 6, 9 and 11 are saturated, 1 is pretty clean
5GHz Chanel set to 149, which looks clear
1. Any other settings I should be looking at in the router or APs that folks find help?
2. For the SSID, right now I have two. One for the 2.4 and another for the 5GHz radio. Should I change that to just 1 and ignore the 2.4 and 5 and then presumably the device will decide what's best to use?
- Xfinity XB6 router in bridge mode (used as a modem)
- Netgear R7000 as the main router running DD-WRT in the basement
- 2 gigabit switches plugged directly into the R7000
- A TP-Link EAP225v3 AP on my main floor, and another on my 2nd floor
