AX50 - 5ghz issues, cant use DFS ranges or change width
Hi all,
Have recently purchased an Archer AX50 and totally underwhelmed with its 5ghz performance. When setting the channel width and channel to auto, i get a max speed (according to wifi info view) of 867mbs, which is quite a bit under the advertised speed! (i have an AX PCIE card in my PC)
When trying to change the width and the channel to solve this (on auto it defaults to a congested channel at 80mhz), the router just stops broadcasting on 5GHZ, every device on my network suddenly can't see 5GHZ network.
Weirdly, on wifiinfoview app it shows that country code as DE (i reside, and bought, in the UK), could it be that broadcasting on DFS channels is not allowed in germany and it's blocking itself?
Any help would be appreciated, otherwise this particular router is being returned!
cheers
