AugustoDurkop Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I bought NETDUMA R2 and his wifi just picks up where he is, another $ 10 router is getting a better signal than netduma. in the netduma 5g it does not exceed 70MB being that it receives 350mb, I have already disabled QOS, all limitations and does not change, it is also passing to other devices only 70 to 80mb lan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 4, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 4, 2021 We are currently working on improving the WiFi but you should be able to receive higher than that. First of all change the antennae to look like this _ | | _ so two pointing straight up, the ones on the side pointing straight outwards. For 5GHz change the width to 80, also use a WiFi analyzer - there is a free app on the Microsoft Store for Windows called WiFi analyzer, find what the least congested channel is for 5GHz and change to that. Also what is the model of the modem/router the R2 is connected to? Is the WiFi enabled on that as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite having the 80 width on the 5Ghz channel in the Wifi Analyzer its only showing up on 20 even though I have selected 80 and saved it. I also rebooted the R2 and my PC and it's still showing up as only 20mhz please see attached photos for your records. Is there a problem with my R2 not getting 80mhz just wanted to ask just in case. Kind Regards, Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I updated I did a full factory reset and setup everything from scratch not sure what to do as its still showing the 20mhz? Kind Regards, Rob.

Thanks for letting us know, could you try 2.4GHz and see if it reflects the widths changes on that to see if it is performing as expected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Netduma Fraser I changed the 2.4ghz to 40 and its the same as the 5G just remains on 20hz. Could this be firmware related? If not would it be possible to get a replacement R2? Kind Regards, Rob.

Newfie Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 What is your throughput on the 5Ghz channel? Have you double checked using a different device and WiFi analyser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
