Model: Archer C1200

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 2.0.2 Build 20180118 rel.38979 (EU)

Hi Team,

This is regarding WiFi Speeds, product indicates 2.4 GHz supports 300 Mbps, but I get only 60Mbps.
(My internet speed is 300Mbps, 5GHz gives the complete 300Mbps)

Can you please help me get the speed close to 300Mbps. Thanks in advance.

@Nightvave

The lower bandwidth could be due to a strong wireless interference around you.

Try scanning the 2.4GHz band with an app like 'inSSIDer' or 'Wi-Fi Analyzer' to check that.

Then set the 2.4GHz band to the least crowded wireless channel and test again.

Even in a perfect environment you won't get speed 300 mbps on a 2.4 GHz band,

since wireless connection type is half-duplex - check this story for more details on that matter.
