Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20230327 Rel. 63517

I have 3 Deco XE75 Pro units in "AP Mode". They are connected to a Mikrotek router via RJ45 wall jacks. All cables are cat5e/cat6. Below is my netework toplogy: 

 

 

 

 

The problem: My wifi is very slow. I pay for 1000mbps/1000mbps symetrical internet service (verified I am getting expected speeds from my ISP). However after setting up the decos, I get 300mbps down / 500mbps up (not sure why this is asymetrical?)

 

My hardwired clients though the deco are a bit better (870mbps/940mbps). 

 

I am testing with iPhone 13 Pro and well as MacBook Pros M1 Max (2021) for wifi, and a custom bult PC for hardwired.

 

Any ideas what might be up here? What improvements could I make? I would like to get 1000mbps up/down from wifi clients.

  @Tom___ are your devices connecting at 5GHz? Also try playing around with Beam forming on and off. I have an issue with one of my computers going slower than advertised due to some kind of a hardware limitation with 802.11n connection.

  @potatoes thanks for the reply. I believe my devices are connecting via 5ghz and are compatible. I've experimented with disabling beam forming and unfortunately that has not helped. Any other ideas?
