Deco M5 half speed in access point mode
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello,
I'm having problem with my Deco M5 routers (2pack).
My topology is:
/ deco m5 main
Huawei router - switch tp link 1gb
\ deco m5 secondary
My internet speed is 1000/100mb.
Im using Deco M5 in access point mode and i'm only having 550-580mb speed via builtin speedtest in deco app.
Real wifi speed 5g near router with my iPhone 7 is around 350-450mb/s.
Doesn't matter if im near main or secondary deco, similiar speeds.
So the point is, when I'm switching Deco to router mode I can see 900-980mb/s (as it should be) in deco app.
I guess it's problem with QoS and lack of QoS option in access point mode.
What I should do to use my decos with full speed?
I can't change this Huawei router since it's connected with my ISP.
Best regards

Good day,
Thank you very much for your concern about this case.
The beta firmware is only useful when you haven’t updated to the latest firmware 1.5.1.
And as for the half-speed issue, it only happens to access point mode since the speed test on Deco APP would require a lot of CPU power from the Deco. When the CPU is overloaded, the measurement might not be accurate.
It would not affect the real download/upload bandwidth on the clients though and they could reach full speed if you run a speed test on these devices.
We will keep optimizing the speed test feature along with the firmware upgrade and please always keep your Deco up to date.
Thanks a lot for your understanding and support.

I am on latest firmware 1.5.1 and I still have same problem . It's also affecting the speedtest on clients . I am getting half the speed in AP mode compared to router mode . My client is hard wired to the Deco . So there is something really up with the Deco M5. Can i try the new beta firmware please ??
