Hi everyone. I found my laptop with AX201 have the same 5G wireless maximum panel speed as my phone at Transmit/Receive 866 Mbps.

Is this normal for my combinations? Since R7000 should has 1300 Mbps on the 5G band.

I have 1G fiber network at my home. My R7000 is using FreshTomato Version 2023.4 with CTF enabled.

Speed test with wire:

Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

AX201 is a two stream card, so on an AC1900 class router like the R7000, it's AC866 in the best sense...

FWIW - your numbers aren't that bad considering...

Thanks for reply. Good to know my network is in best setup. Never put the network in heavy loading, hopefully the R7000 can keep running till 2033 as a secondary AP. 😃
