Speed Via AX50 half of what I get through standard modem

2022-02-16 19:31:03

Model: Archer AX50

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: Latest firmware

Has anyone had success resolving this? Have updated QoS and made sure no priorities are active. Device and application.

This is not why I bought this router to throttle my speed. I bought it to improve strength of signal, now it's worse.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Hello @DavidLpl, thank you for reaching out to us, and welcome to the TP-Link community.

Hello, do you mean only the 2.4GHz connection is slow? Is the 5GHz speed normal? If that is the case, it's quite possible that the 2.4GHz band around you is highly congested. You can check that by installing an app like Wi-Fi Analyzer on your phone or laptop and test, then set a channel with less congestion according to the test results on the AX50.

Thanks No it can't be congestion. I have tested with isp modem and I am getting full speed. 5ghz is better (nearer or on advertised speed) 2ghz I'm only getting 60-90) when it should be 200mb. As I say, speed is fine with ISP modem. Thanks
