BE-85 Several issue with wifi 6e and wifi 7
Network Issues with BE-85 and WiFi Performance
I currently have three BE-85 routers, all connected via 10Gb wired connections. My ISP provides a 2000/2000 Mbps speed, and I'm based in Thailand. All my devices were tested about 2 meters from the access point.
Issues with WiFi 6E:
-
Windows PC (WiFi 6E on 6GHz band): I'm getting only around 400 Mbps during speed tests. When I switch back to WiFi 6 (5GHz band), I see speeds around 850 Mbps.
-
iPad Pro (M4 with WiFi 6E): Similar results here. On the 6GHz band (either with MLO channel or directly), speeds range between 300-400 Mbps. But switching to the 5GHz band gives around 800 Mbps.
Issues with WiFi 7:
- iPhone 16 Pro (WiFi 7): The speeds on the MLO channel or direct 6GHz band are between 200-300 Mbps, and the connection is sometimes unstable.
Because of these issues, I've had to disable both the MLO and 6GHz channels.
It’s frustrating since I invested heavily in these devices expecting to benefit from advanced WiFi 6E and 7, but instead, I'm stuck using standard WiFi 6 like I would with much cheaper routers.
