AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
I'll ask here since I'm continuing to tweak the router. I'm trying to make use of 80MHz or even 160MHz on the 5GHz band if possible, but no such luck so far. The neighbor's band is annoyingly on channel 44 which limits my options a bit. I think 160MHz is out since the highest channel I'm...- TheExodu5

AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
Good to know. Well, I'm a semi detached house and the only heavily competed channel here is channel 11, so I could try channel 1 @ 40Mhz. Another thing that's a bit odd. Not sure if I'm reading the SNB router rankings right, but my connection over 5GHz is ~-45-50db and I still manage 950mbps...- TheExodu5

AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
I'm currently on the default 20/40. I'll try 40 later once the wife is done work.- TheExodu5

AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
I'm very tempted to pick up an AX-88U to see how it fares. It sounds like it might have more stability at range, and the built-in WTFast won't hurt for FF XIV (I honestly thought it was a scam, but pings to drop fairly noticeably for me having tried it in the past). Question is whether or not it...- TheExodu5

AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
Well the good news is at least 5GHz performance is stellar. My iPhone gets around ~600mbps at close range and ~100mbps at the edges of my house (though with increased jitter). And AX performance is through the roof, basically capping my 1gbps connection. I'm just not sure what type of device is...- TheExodu5

AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
Yeah I've tried with and without AX, also with Beamforming on and off. From any distance, my max 2.4GHz throughput seems to be in the 25-60mbps range. Just wanted to make sure this is expected and not a possible issue with the router itself.- TheExodu5

AX-86U poor 2.4GHz performance
This may be within the realm of expected for 2.4GHz, but somehow I expected better performance on the 2.4GHz band of my AX-86U. There is some competition in the 2.4GHz range in my area, but with a -25db signal I can manage around 100mbps on my Intel AX200 equipped PC, and with my mobile phone...- TheExodu5
