Hello all
So I was testing my current wifi setup to get a base line, as I am about to replace it for a hopefully better one. While measuring I got some seemingly weird results, and I would like some insights on what I should look for to avoid these kind of performance issues.
While nobody was at home except me (so nobody else demanding from the wifi connection), I got about 90 Mbit/s on Speed Test multiple times, and with two different devices. Then I tested with two devices at same time with Speed Test (on the same server), and the sum of the speed of both devices was 38.6 Mbps (19.3 Mbps + 19.3 Mbps). Why is the speed with both devices at the same time so much lower than with only one device? Could it be an issue with the config of the access point, or is it maybe a limitation it has with multiple devices? Is there any specific characteristic or capability I should look for in the new AP in order to get better performance with multiple devices?
ISP Band: 100 Mbps
AP: TP-Link TL WA850RE (working as an AP, not an extender)
Router: Intelbras RF 301K
Thanks!
