Bought a new Asus RT-AC88U.
Have a 500Mbps/s (fiber) subscription. Wired I get about 525 up and down.
Wireless:
Linkspeed is 866Mbps
Router is set at 5GHz, using 80MHz and channel 'auto'.
Signal is very strong, distance to router is about 1 meter.
Using Ookla, mobile test I am getting roughly 250/280.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (supports ac)
Someone else, having the same provider, the same subscription, but using the AC87U, also set to 5GHz, 80MHz and channel set to auto, also using Ookla mobile test (but from is phone) is getting
well over 400Mbit/s and 1x even over 500Mbit/s.
8 out of 10 435-450Mbit/s.
Is there so much of a difference between the 87 and 88 ?
What is a fair speed that I might expect?
My Asus RT-N66U that I had until recently (linkspeed 300Mbps) wireless results were around 150-170Mbps. Improvement is rather moderate.
Should I better try to get the AC3200 then ??
Thanks
