Model: Deco P9  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.0.4

I recently bought a Deco P9 and I have AT&T Uverse Gigabit (sometimes) speed. This is my current set up

 

Main Deco- Connected to a switch since my router/cable modem is inside a termination closet built in at my house

Second Deco- Upstairs at the owner's suite

Third Deco- Located in the family enterainment room

 

My connection is very slow wirelessly, as a matter of fact, my ATT default Wifi is still higher when I do speed test. Here are my speed test results (Using iPhone XS Max)

 

Main Deco Vicinity- 150 Mbps

Second Deco- 95 Mbps

Third Deco- 75 Mbps

 

I was wondering if I should plug the main directly instead, but my concern is that the main Deco will be behind closed doors. I was wondering if theres something else that I am doing wrong that some of you may be able to give me some pointers on. Do I need to do anything on the ATT's gateway? Please advise.

Is your modem/router's WiFi still enabled? I had my P9s running (in AP mode) alongside my router and was getting problems. Been OK since I disabled the router's WiFi.

I gave it a go and no dice. I may just return this and get a Velop instead. I can't accept those types of speed, not when I am paying for Gigabit speed. I went to my neighbor's house just now and I was getting 350 Mbs consistently everywhere in his house. Not sure whats Im doing wrong, but the P9 aint doing what its supposed to do
