Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi,

 

I am running the latest firmware for the Deco M5 in a 3x setup. 

 

I am right next to one of the Decos (bot the main one), and according to the Deco app, the down speed is ~ 100Mbps, but according to my device speed tests (Mac, Windows and Android), I am only getting 2-3Mbps.

 

I am running my (Virjin Media Hub) in Modem mode and the Deco M5 in Router mode.

 

I have one main Wifi network on 2.5 + 5Ghz and one Guest network on 2.5Ghz only.

 

Why is my actual wifi speed so slow?

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Z

Connect your Mac or Windows PC to the second Ethernet port of Main Deco, and run speed test with wired computer. That will help to eliminate Deco misconfiguration as a cause. If you will be getting same 100Mbps on Windows/Mac in that setup, that would tell Deco is not misconfigured (such as bandwidth throttling).
