Hello
I am new to this community. Please forgive any ignorance. I am using virgin hub 3.0 as my main router and want to use an old virgin super hub 2ac as an access point to extend the range. Want to use wifi from both hub 3.0 and access point hub2ac. Don't want to put the hub 3.0 in modem mode.
I have already done the setting up but the speed from the access point is limited to 10Mbps on all the devices. I have windows laptop, windows desktop, iPad pro, android phone and iPhone.
When I check in the hub 3.0 settings for connected devices I see the link speed is 10Mbps on the devices that are connected via the access point hub 2ac.
On the connection it shows they are connected by ethernet which makes sense I guess as they are connected to the access point hub2ac which is connected to the main router hub 3.0 via ethernet?
Connecting to hub 3.0 gives 100Mbps speed.
I have already checked the cable that connects the hub 3.0 to the access point hub2ac by connecting a computer and get 100Mbps via the same cable. Using cat5e cable.
my hub 3.0 ip 192.168.0.1
range is from 10 to 253
hub 2ac ip 192.168.0.254
dhcp off on hub 2ac. Firewall off on hub 2ac.
The first day of connection was giving speed of 100Mbps from the access point. The second day somehow started giving 10Mbps.
I have done reset of hub2ac a few times but no change in speed. I have tried changing ip address of the hub2ac with no success. Tried different ssid/password and same ssid /password. Still the same.
Would really appreciate your kind help.
Many Thanks
AMS
