Tp-Link AX53 youtube/streaming slow/unusable
Hello.
A friend of mine has bought this router and now youtube/google play store and maybe other webpages are having problems loading.
Main problem is that loading youtube is very slow, and sometimes takes almost a full minute to get it to play the youtube video. Google play store also cannot download, or when it actually starts to download an app, its very slow. Trying to connect to ISP wifi/ethernet port (to take tp-link router out of equation), everything works as it should without any issues, therefor the issue lies with this router.
Router settings/information below:
Router: TP-Link Archer AX53 V1.0
Firmware: 1.2.4 Build 20240509 rel.64683
Mode: Access Point Mode
Connection type: Static IP
Primary DNS: 1.1.1.1 (tried without DNS as well)
Secondary DNS: 1.0.0.1
Smart connect: disabled
Connected ports:
- WAN (cable directly from ISP modem)
I tried to set it up from both the tether app and the web gui, without any changes to this problem.
I also tried to run nperf app streaming test on my phone and it timeouts and never completes.
I can see my friend is not the only one with this problem, as I can find multiple other people with the same issue:
