Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi all,


I've just change RSP and upgrade my nbn speed from 50Mbps ⬇️ to 100Mbps ⬇️.

 

On wifi, I had no issue with 50 Mbps on all 3 of the Deco M5. Roughly will get 45-50Mbps.

 

Once I've upgraded the speed to 100Mbps. Speed test remain within 45-50Mbps on wifi. (Strangely, my power over ethernet connection also remain at 45-50Mbps). I switched on the wifi from the modem/router and speed is 95-100+ Mbps

 

 I've change the settings from Router mode (default) to AP mode and the speed increased to 95-100 Mbps on wifi.

 

Tried router mode again and the speed drop again to 45-50 Mbps on wifi.

 

Can anyone help to explain why its doing this? And the steps to fix this? Ideally i like to keep the router mode on as it allow parental control and QoS.

 

The only thing i haven't done is factory resetting the deco.


Thank you for reading and looking forward for your input & suggestions.

 

Thanks

@timp78 - I think I've solved it. QoS was set to prioritised gaming and I put it back to standard and did a couple of speed test on 2 different iphones and the speed are 95-100Mbps.

 

Thanks.

@timp78 - sorry im pretty novice with technology. Do i check the QoS speed on the router or on Deco5?

 

Thanks.
