Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 4, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 4, 2021 I'd suggest disabling Mirror Mode, then giving 2.4/5GHz different names, apply, reboot from the interface, wait 2 minutes then access. Use a WiFi analyzer to find the least congested channels in your area for 2.4 and 5GHz then change to that. Also experiment with the widths and see what gives you the higher speeds on 5GHz.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 4, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 4, 2021 The hub may have higher WiFi specs than the R2 so the 265 is likely the max you'll be able to achieve but just in case make the antennae look like this _ | | _ and ensure there are no electrical or wireless devices (e.g. headphones, remotes etc) within 3 feet of the router, if possible ensure it's not on a metal shelf. We're still improving results on Benchmark though they're pretty good on the R2, if you use a normal speed test site you should get the correct speeds via ethernet so you won't be limited. Console speed tests can be inaccurate and you won't need much upload at all for gaming so you will be getting what is needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
