    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    Spoke a little too soon it seems at least once a week its doing the dreaded dropping to 2.4GHz backhaul and stays there until I reboot the node and it comes up and goes back onto 5GHz straight away and remains for 3-7days

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    Just an update for anyone interested, I think I have resolved the issue and that was by manually setting the backhaul channel to 160MHz rather than letting it automatically decide. What was odd though when testing with it set to auto in wifi-analyser etc it would also show it as 160MHz but was...

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    No difference at all, as I when testing in the garden room I have used the ethernet cable from it (with the AX58 turned off)

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    I have tried 100/80 and still strangly get the same bandwidth limitation. I have had this setup for over a week so far and not had any radar events on DFS yet. I will continue to play around and see if it improves, its been great otherwise (stable etc) and the only other issue I have seen is a...

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    I haven't tried SMB transfer yet, but when I try a simple speedtest.net I get the same reduced speeds when connected to that node (when its on wireless backhaul)

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    The same 300-350Mbps, so the limiting factor is the Wireless Backhaul (even though it says the connection is as fast as can be expected). If I connect to the node when the XT8's are connect via Ethernet Backhaul then I get around 500-600Mbps+

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    No channel overlap at all with my backhaul channel, infact was surprised at the lack of other 5GHz wifi detected

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    Also just for testing I connected a laptop to my backhaul ssid and I was able to get 500ish Mbps with a device that was only connecting at 1400Mbps

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    So just for testing (as I need wireless backhaul with this setup) but using ethernet backhaul running the same tests I'm getting the expected 1GB (well 949Mbps). Then disconnecting the ethernet between the nodes I get between 330-360Mbps again (even 1 meter apart), which is odd when it says the...

    Asus XT8 - Wireless Backhaul - Capping at 350Mbps on 160MHz/5GHz

    HI all, I have recently just purchased a pair of Asus XT8's. They are setup using the dedicated wireless backhaul on channel 116 in 160MHz mode and have been rock solid in terms of stability. Via the web console it says the wireless backhaul connection speed of being around 3000 Mbps up/down...
