    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    I'm delighted that you're finding this so interesting... After initially thinking that INSSIDER was causing the issue, it was actually the repair of the installation of the Intel driver/software that fixed it... Hopefully I can determine exactly what the problem is this particular...

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    Ok, bit of an update - this evening the performance reverted to garbage - no INSSIDER installed. After a few other failed changes, I’ve repaired the installation of Intel Wireless Pro Set Manager and it’s gone back to normal. I’ll uninstall that program and see if it falls over again when I...

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    That's good enough for me... Bloody INSSIDER has cost me some time.

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    Well... I think I've fixed it. More testing to come, but, after a LOT of configuration change and test: I uninstalled INSSIDER, then... I repaired the installation of my Intel wireless client (I had previously done this a number of times with no success) Full speed maintained throughout the...

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    I was away at a family funeral yesterday, but when I got back I ran a quick check on a 1gb file transfer to and from my NAS, and over wifi, thru the 86u, my upload was about 235mbps (IIRC) and my download was 399 (I remember this specifically). I will obviously do much more testing of this, and...

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    Thanks for the detailed response! Just to be clear, I was able to manage 147mbs dl over wifi with A+ grades across the board around 3 weeks ago. 1: much more than 10 to 15ft away from the router will introduce obstructions, sadly. Laptop was in performance mode, and plugged in. 2: INSSIDER...

    For completeness, the results from speedtest.net, over a similar time period - the one at 8pm was hard wired.

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    FWIW< here are some results from Think, at similar times. Upload is constant. Pings are consistent. Quality (not shown) was very good.

    Consistent Wireless Speeds - Reasonable Expectations

    I've been chasing this around for a while, and though I'm confident with the manipulation of different firmware and basic Putty manipulation, actually snooping the root cause of my issues has been a bit of a fumble in the dark. Specs: 86U - Latest Merlin FW 80mhz - ch 56 seems to be best so...

    Poor download speed over WiFi with Asus ac86u 5 GHz

    Has anybody actually managed to find a solution for this, as I'm in a very similar position . 86U, clear wifi channels and excellent signal strength and connection rates - UK ISP - 150dn/30up - Latest drivers in laptop for AC card and iphone XR all up to date. Sitting in direct line of site to...

    AC-86u wireless download speed is exactly half of the Ethernet speed

    I’ll get myself another router in the loop later and see if it makes a difference Martin. If so, I’ll certainly lodge the issue with Asus. As my issue differs slightly from yours I’ll start another thread up to cover that with some data to back it up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AC-86u wireless download speed is exactly half of the Ethernet speed

    Hmmm... My Connection is PPPoE too. I wonder if this is contributing to my issues also?I'm in the UK on Zen Ultrafast with an FTP connection. Might it be worth me going through the same steps as Martin and putting in a double NAT to get the wifi speeds up to scratch?

    AC-86u wireless download speed is exactly half of the Ethernet speed

    Hi Colin, Before I rolled back the drivers, I was getting 82mbps tops. Now it will sometimes spike to 150, it can sometimes hold this for up to 2/3 of the test, before dropping back to anywhere between 30 and 80mbps ish. 153mbps is the best Speedtest result I’ve ever had, and I was getting...

    AC-86u wireless download speed is exactly half of the Ethernet speed

    Thanks Colin, I've rolled back as far as 384_10 so far... it's still misbehaving. Cat6 direct to my laptop provides full speed. Cat6 via the router provides full speed. The wifi link will support the speed, but not maintain it throughout a test. This is the case with the iPhone XR and the...
