You forgot to run the crystaldiskinfo to check the temps while running tests as well as typical usage over 1-2 days :). I have a similar case from orico & temps hit 75C easily during crystaldiskmark test done in a room with ambient temps around 25C with the enclosure not even closed(the...

Are you using anything other than wpa2+AES encryption for wifi password?

Have you enabled guest network on both devices at same time? I never had asus routers so maybe it is something specific to them but such built-in hidden networks in wifi devices usually have some specific function like guest network or some internal path/failsafe etc in case of multiple...

Usually such hidden networks are guest networks on devices disabled/hidden by default until you enable them.

I have a desktop with pci-e ethernet card so two 1gbps ethernet ports. I currently have my PC & NAS connected to wifi router & each having static ip address set in ipv4 settings. I want to connect my pc directly to NAS via second ethernet port on pcie card while 1st ethernet port will remain...

The one in the drop down box above AP list showing as 3C:7C.. or is it just a dummy example from manufacturer?

I hope that's not real mac of any of your device in the screenshot.

Thanks! :)

Update: Turned out it was ethernet driver which was causing the issue. At first I didn't thought of updating the driver as I assumed using win 10 21H1 on a ryzen setup the driver shouldn't be more than 2-3 years old but when I looked I found out windows was using a driver back from 2015...

So I did more testing & these are the results: 1. PC connected to secondary router via ethernet running iperf in server mode & laptop connected to primary router via ethernet running iperf in client mode & able to achieve ~300mbps for a 4gb file transfer(using -n switch in iperf). 2. Laptop...

Speed tests are not big enough to show the spike effect, I get 220mbps upload & download speed consistently as the test finish within 2 minutes. This is actually quite new model by D-link though mostly aimed for developing nations market so yes compared to the basic asus rt-ac66u standard here...

Real world tests, using browser to upload large size files to google drive/onedrive & copying large size file from pc to neworked drive on NAS where I am getting expected 75MB/s speeds but as per my setup & your comment this is bypassing primary router as both pc & nas connected via ethernet to...

So I tested by directly connecting my pc to primary dlink router via ethernet & even then I get similar result of "speed drop spikes" every few second. This is what the transfer speed looks like while uploading a 4gb file with max(& expected) speed of around 220mbps(see attached file). Is this...

Yes it has nothing to do with the torrents it seems but the primary dlink router itself. I am not sure what can be the reason that it can sustain 70MB/s of transfer speeds between two devices over ethernet connected to secondary router(see my network setup in my first post above) but can't...

@ColinTaylor Found out this issue is not limited to video playback, turned out when I stop all torrents & just uploading a 7gb file to google drive & directly connected to primary dlink router via 5g usb wifi adapter I still face similar issue where upload speed continuously varies from 220mbps...
