Hello Guys,

 

I have a question which is bothering me, i have bouth Wifi Extender TP-Link R330 Wifi Extender.

I have managed to set it up but how is it possible Wifi 5G is faster then access point (Lan)? Why isnt it at least the same ?
I attached all three speed tests for comparison, can you please help me? what am I doing wrong? 
I appreciate your efforts, thank you

 

This is my lan direct connection speed with Mac.

 

 

This is my wifi connection speed via acces point set up (RE 330)

Hello @wladoD , 

May I know do you use RE330 in Range extender Mode(wireless to router)  or Access Point Mode (wired to router). When being set up as an Access point, as RE330 is equipped with a 10/100M Ethernet Port (RJ45), the speed of RE330 will be within 100Mbps. Please check the  spec of RE330 from here. You may upgrade to an extender with a 1000Mbps Gigabit port if you wish to use wired connection then speed would be faster. 

For the third photo of 5Ghz speed you attached,  I think that might be the speed of Wi-Fi router, not the speed of range extender's 5Ghz signal?
