AX50 - Wifi 5GHz best perf -> Same SSID vs Smart Connect - Solution ?
Hi all,
Just a small testimonial following several tries and tests I've done to get the best wifi perf at home.
I have around 20 devices at home. I must admit I have no particular stability issues. However I would qualify Wifi Perf as "middle-range".
I also have 2 AX clients. After extensive tests using my laptop which is having an AX201 wifi card here is my conclusion :
Do not use Smart Connect and do not select auto channel witdh selection for 5Ghz.
Perf are divided by at least two in term of bandwith / link quality with equiv. device / environnement / distance in my case.
Using smart connect, even without 5ghz other wifi around, the router seems to stay in 80Mhz and speedtests are slower. Also, no QoS, no Security options are set.
Below my settings, do not hesitate to try and tell me if it's better for you also or not ! ;)
SSID are the same. No issues at all.
For 2 .4 Ghz
For 5Ghz
