TL-WA850RE access point speed way below 300 mbps
Hi everyone,
I successfully managed to set up my TL-WA850RE as an access point, connected to the router via LAN and main wi-fi router is off.
The problem is the internet speed is around 25-30 mbps. My internet subscription is for 1000 mbps and when I connect the same LAN cable to the computer I reach 700-800 mbps. I was hoping the TL-WA850RE connected via LAN would transfer closer to the 300mbps advertised speed.
Are there any settings I can adjust to increase the speed or this is the max access point mode can produce?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Brian

@sweden84 What band are you measuring your internet speeds and how? As a baseline you want want to plug in the ethernet cable into a laptop or other device so you can measure what speed you are getting from the cable. If you're getting good speeds from ethernet, then I suspect that either there's a configuration issue with your wireless settings (check you cjhannel width), you are having interference on the channel you are using or the device you are using to measure does not have a good wireless network adapter. For instance I can never achieve trop speeds running speed check from my phone. A laptop with the latest network adapters are more reliable to measure wifi performance.

@Tailspin thanks! When I connect the cable to a laptop I easily reach 600+mbps. How can I configure my channel width? Thanks again for your help!
