RE505x "low" speeds as access point.
Hello, i bought a RE505x to plug in right next to a gigabit switch thats on the upper floor, to use it as an access point, because while the PCs connected to the switch via ethernet are getting fast internet, obviously, the wifi from the router downstairs doesn't reach (For the phones for exemple)
Anyways, so i configured it and everything, then swapped the mode to access point, plug it to the switch, let it do its thing, everything works just fine, but then i go to speedtest it and find myself stuck at ~220mbps down, 330mbps up (yes faster upload, this is also reflected in the wifi setting page of my phone, thats roughly the connection between my phone and the wifi. It is not speedtest, the servers or my internet connection that bottlenecks this), both in the room i want the wifi in, or right next to the repeater.
I'm on Gigabit internet, plugged into a Gigabit switch via a cat 6a cable, switch that is also wired via a cat 6a cable to the router.
Now my phone is not wifi 6, and i can see in the settings that i'm connected (via the 5Ghz band) to 802.11ac
According to Wifi analyzer, its set to 80mhz channel, (and 20mhz for the 2.4Ghz, which are the same settings as my router so i believe it grabbed theses settings as i was setting it up first before switching to access point)
But 802.11ac at 80mhz should be capable of way higher speeds. Am i having too high expectations or is something wrong?
Thank you !
