Model: Deco X50  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.8.0

I have two Deco X50, the main one (Living Room) is wired to router and in access mode, the second one is wired to main one.

 

My network speed is 500mbs , however when using my laptop it connects to the main X50 in my living room, about 10 feet away, the speed is only 300mbs, however if I move nearer the main unit or even go upstairs the speed goes up to the correct speed of 500 mbs, while still connected to main X50.

 

It connects via 5 GHz and remains connected to this while moving.

 

I dont know why the speed is slow in one area, albeit near to the main X50, but increases when I move nearer or further away?

 

My other wifi items, ipad and mobile however are always at 500 mbs, its very puzzling?

Hi, 
If your iPad and other phones can get 500 Mbps in an area where your laptop gets 300 Mbps, the Deco's speed should be ok.
You can check whether any other electrical appliances in that area might be interfering with the laptop's speed, and try adjusting the laptop's wireless network card position to see if that helps.
Best Regards
