    [Sort of SOLVED] Slow Wifi Upload for XT8 on Verizon Fios

    Hello everyone, I thought I'd share my latest experiment which appears to have solved my biggest issues with my XT8 system. I originally started with a 4 unit XT8 mesh system on Verizon Fios with a 400/400 plan. Wired speeds were 500/500 (not a typo) but on wireless I could never get above...
