hi everyone,

 

as per the title I'm getting a strange issue where when I have the Root AP as the EAP 650 desktop, the child AP(eap610) has slow wireless speeds where it crawls down to Ombs.

 

when I try either my other 610 or 620hd, or behaves normally so not sure if this is a specific to my unit thing or just an issue between the two models on general.

 

for context rssi is -50 between and the 650 desktop is wired and and the 610 is connected to a sg2008p

Why are you using mesh?  If the EAP650-Desktop is wired and the EAP610 is wired to the SG2008P (which in turn, is wired), then you don't need to have mesh enabled.  It is more of a question of channel configuration and setting the Tx power on both APs.

Understand...  Let's see what the moderators have to say on this issue.  I have 3 EAP650-Desktop APs here and there hasn't been any firmware updates lately which may fix your problem.

Hi  @Jropes 

Thanks for posting here.

To better understand the situation, please first help to confirm if I understand correctly:

When testing, did you use the same Ethernet cables, set the mesh to the same channel, and use the same channel width? Did you test wireless speed all on 5G?

Hi  @Jropes 

Thank you for your feedback. These two models do not have mesh issues.

Since the speed has dropped to 1-3 Mbps, I suspect that the mesh link may not have been properly established.

At first glance, this could be due to a channel issue. The EAP650-Desktop supports more channels than the EAP610, and I suspect that the EAP650-Desktop's 5GHz band might be operating on a channel that the EAP610 does not support.

If you're willing, you may manually set the EAP650-Desktop's 5G channel to fixed 48 to verify this. Thanks.
