    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    I think someone mentioned a repeater would half the bandwidth though.

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    You're suggesting moving the router into the staircase and run cables down to where the router previously was and add a switch? That covers part of the case but then likely creates the inverse problem for the WiFi devices downstairs now having poor signal, one of these being 4K streaming TV and...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Moving the router would mean moving the other devices that are conveniently connected via Ethernet to it, which means more cables to manage. I am also restricted by the Cable modem as that is where the coax port is. There are wifi connected devices downstairs and outside the front door...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    A random thought if adjusting router doesn't work - the staircase wall is right where my router is and there is a light in the staircase on the same wall. If I could run an Ethernet cable up this wall and piggy-back off the power running to the light, would something like this be the best option...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I can't really move the desktop any closer to the router but I can mount the router (which is behind a TV and on a low to floor TV unit) up a little higher and play with the orientation and antenna angles. I am surprised that extending the desktop antenna...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Correct. Now that I understand it is signal related, not an issue with router settings. I need to figure out the best approach to boost signal upstairs, mostly in the office where the desktop is which has the poorest signal.

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Thanks for all the input everyone! @ColinTaylor - I am using the built-in WiFi adapter on my motherboard which is Gigabyte Aorus Z370. I gained about 40-50mbit by moving the antenna off the top of the desktop tower. I read that USB 3 can cause interference and it was sitting near some USB 3...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Oh ok. I wasn't seeing any options in the Web UI for AiMesh. Maybe it's in a non obvious spot. I'm a little limited on my options as I don't really want to run Ethernet through my walls. The AC3200 does have dual 5GHz, so I could dedicate one of those for the link between router and extender...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    I don't use Windows. I did however try scp and rsync and got the same results. I used iperf on the laptop over WiFi in different parts of the house and could get good results (300+ mbit), so I think the bottleneck is signal in some areas on the second floor. I was looking at the RP-AC1900 as a...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    I must have had a brainfart and didn't test this specific scenario. I just tested LAN to LAN using iperf3 and I am getting 900+ megabit/s! I grabbed my laptop and did some tests around the house and it appears to be signal related. I have a two story house and the router is downstairs as that...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    I've tried disabling a few more things and disconnecting devices but nothing seems to have an effect. I can't get more then 60-70 megabit/s between devices either LAN or Wifi. Does anyone have any other suggestions before I do a complete factory reset and start from scratch?

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    I'll have to do some trial and error it seems. The strange thing is that the devices can get higher speeds out to the internet but not on local network. This would suggest it isn't defective hardware?

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Hi follower, The original settings had: NAT HW enabled Jumbo frame disabled I would need to double check, but enabling Jumbo frame seemed to improve internet speed for Ethernet connected devices. I was seeing on speedtest my Raspberry Pi only getting around 30 megabit/s with Jumbo disabled...

    RT-AC3200 slow transfer speeds on local network

    Hi there! I am experiencing extremely slow bandwidth over my local network. At first I thought it was a problem of transferring between Wifi and Ethernet connected devices but I tested Wifi to Wifi and it is also slow. I am seeing max speeds of 7-10 MB/s. When I check internet speed from each...
