    Asus Zenwifi ET8 slow WiFi Speeds

    Wanted to give an update on this. After I rerouted the connection via the Verizon router my wifi speeds got a big boost. Tested the Asus ET8, Asus Rapture GT11000 and they both were providing much better throughput but now I have a double nat issue that I gotta figure out as I don't want to run...

    Yeah I realize that the Asus Mesh systems have mixed real world reviews. I am still in the return window so will most likely swap it out with something else if it doesn't pan out but yeah if you have already gone ahead with the investment then might as well keep it for now.

    Asus Zenwifi ET8 slow WiFi Speeds

    I haven't tried TP-Link yet either maybe I will give it a go as well. Netgear has been screwing up there firmware updates so I rather stay away. My older router is a Netgear Orbi 750 which is also been restarting every so often and sometimes needs a power cycle to start working again which is...

    Asus Zenwifi ET8 slow WiFi Speeds

    Ah interesting and may explain why when I tried XT8 and the Rapture GT-AX11000 I experienced the same issue as the ET8. But what I find confusing is that wired speeds are fine and its just the wifi that is impacted. I am thinking of grabbing the Eero Pro 6 later today to test that out to see if...

    Asus Zenwifi ET8 slow WiFi Speeds

    Yeah I get the interference and the sharing but I was getting around 500 down and 600 up on my older mesh router so I expect this to at least be in the same range but should be giving me better performance. I tested this by itself first and then added the mesh point which didn't really make any...

    It's between 750 to 1200 on the 5ghz band and 2.3gpbs on 6E.

    Asus Zenwifi ET8 slow WiFi Speeds

    Hey Everyone, First time in this forum and posting. I just got the Asus Zenwifi ET8 router and I am getting fairly slow wifi throughput. I have Verizon FiOS Gigabit service and plugged straight into the Asus router. Wired I am getting proper speeds around 900/900 average but over wifi 5 or 6...
