Model: Archer AX50  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.9 Build 20200708 rel.55037 (5553)

I purchased the Archer AX50 yesterday but I'm finding the speeds are slower than my old google wifi router on iPhone 12, iPhone 11, and iPhone X. I get a maximum of 250mbps if I'm lucky! On my old macbook pro 2016 I can sometimes get 500mbps which is weird.

 

Connected to the lan port on the AX50 gives me over 900mbps. 

 

Even when I reset to factory defaults and upgrade the firmware and use default settings the maximum speed I get is 250mbps.

 

I've tried the following :

  • Updated firmware (makes no difference)
  • Reset to factory defaults (makes no difference)
  • Set up using the app / Set up not using the app (as someone on the forum mentioned it makes a difference)
  • Tried connecting to 5G with 802.11ax only (width and channel on auto, also tried setting 160MHz, makes no difference )
  • Tried Smart mode on / off (makes little difference)
  • Set up connected directly to my ISP WAN in (router mode) makes no difference
  • Set up connected through my ubiquiti router (access point mode) makes no difference
