Only 200mb Wifi Speed on 1gb line with Deco M4

Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V20
Firmware Version: 1.1.0 Build 20190620 Rel 45372

Hi,

 

I have a 1gig fibre line. 

 

Testing the line via my laptop, straight to the service providers box on the wall give me over 500mb/s however, as soon as I plug in my Deco M4, I get a max wifi speed of 196mb/s. 

 

I'm under the impression the MR should give up to 1200mb/s.

 

What could be the issue?

 

Also, all my switches are gigabit switches...but cannot even over wired devices get more than 200mb/s.

Have you checked the QOS settings in the Deco app? I just upgraded to a faster line and couldn't work out why it was 'stuck' on the old speed.. it was the QOS!

It's is resolved. Under QoS I caned from 200 to 1000 and it's sorted...via ethernet speed is great....wifi only 250mb max though.

@jongarrido 

 

These are maximum theoretical speeds you could get from Deco M4:

 

5 GHz: 867 Mbps (802.11ac)
2.4 GHz: 300 Mbps (802.11n)

 

240-250 is really good for device on WiFi 2.4GHz, but 5GHz device can do better. Turn off 2.4GHz in WiFi Settings in Deco app, for Main Network and for Guest Network (if Guest Network is enabled). See if your WiFi device can connect to 5GHz and if it'll get better speed.
