    Anyone using 802.11ax with upload/transmit greater than 195<>230Mbps?

    The best way to improve your transmit speeds is to reset everything to defaults. Then, the only thing you should do is enable 160mhz and ensure the AX band is set to only allow AX clients. Different routers have different ways of getting 160mhz. On my AX92u, I have to manually select a DFS...

    Release RT-AX92U Version 3.0.0.4.386.43084 released 6/3/21

    This sounds like a DCHP issue. As stated in the other post this is a known issue on Asus and there are fixes. Unfortunately, I can't help you further than that. I've never had the issue. But you should look into fixing that before downgrading firmware The biggest issue almost everybody had...

    Release RT-AX92U Version 3.0.0.4.386.43084 released 6/3/21

    41712 has been rock solid with no issues. I've been getting 900 mb/s over AX. Your Internet connectivity problem sounds like a known DHCP issue with some Asus router / isp combinations. I beleive there is a fix although can't remember the steps, it was something to do with continous scanning?

    QOS on 1gbps network speeds

    I'm sure most of us are experienced enough to know if we have buffer bloat. But I'd like to add this for anyone new who's been told to enable QOS by default. To test if you have buffer bloat, run a speed test on the router (or PC connected via ethernet) and run continuous pings on another...

    Anyone using 802.11ax with upload/transmit greater than 195<>230Mbps?

    Can you post any links to clarify this? I'm interested in reading more about it.

    Anyone using 802.11ax with upload/transmit greater than 195<>230Mbps?

    I also have symmetrical FTTH and my throughput when running a speed test is always around 900mb/s on wireless, even in the next room or next floor. However, the link speed varies wildly. If the device has been left idle the link transmit / receive rate starts decreasing to save power. I believe...

    Anyone using 802.11ax with upload/transmit greater than 195<>230Mbps?

    Link speed will vary depending on your distance from the router and other factors. The most important metric (that actually impacts your performance) is your throughput. Measure this using speedtest.net

    ASUS XT8 - Wifi Drops

    Asus AX routers can acheive 900mb/s over WiFi. You need to setup 160mhz mode. Lots of threads here about it.

    Anyone using 802.11ax with upload/transmit greater than 195<>230Mbps?

    That wouldn't work for me. I'm in the UK, houses are close together and here the 5Ghz band is saturated in most neighborhoods. For us, if we want 160Mhz, it's DFS or nothing.

    Anyone using 802.11ax with upload/transmit greater than 195<>230Mbps?

    My transfer speed (speedtest.net) is around 900mbps, it connects at 2.5gb. Mine are AX92u's but your AX88u will offer the same performance My control channel is 100 which is DFS. In reality, this is the only real way to get 160Mhz working, unless you live in a remote area.

    RT-AC86U Poor Wireless Speed - 160MHz doesn't work

    I'm confused here. Why would intel drivers work for a killer WiFi adaptor? Is killer part of intel?

    RT-AC86U Poor Wireless Speed - 160MHz doesn't work

    Might be an idea to send it back and get an AX router. Asus have many and this should solve your throughput issue. Your Dell XPS supports WiFi 6.

    ASUS RT-92U Mesh trouble

    You need to change the 2.4g bandwidth to 40mhz. That should double the throughput. I've never tried it as our neighborhood has a highly congested 2.4g space.

    Asus RT-AX92U 160Mhz bandwith ignored

    Logic dictates that this shouldn't work but it does. You would think dual band smart connect should mean just 2.4g and 5g1 Mine never gives me the option for tri band smart connect, how did you get it on yours?

    Asus RT-AX92U 160Mhz bandwith ignored

    Here is a speed test from a phone, it was ran in the attic. The nearest AX92u node is on the floor below.

    Asus RT-AX92U 160Mhz bandwith ignored

    Take a look at the snapshot below. You can see all of the AX devices on our network are on the AX band. The printer is only 2.4Ghz. Give your AX92u a few days for it to learn and yours should end up like this too.

    Asus RT-AX92U 160Mhz bandwith ignored

    For those looking for AX only, click / select the following as shown in the image attached. It's definitely there but you have to select the 5-Ghz 2 band for it to be visible. If you set this up correctly. your AX92u will give you 1gbps over WiFi for your AX devices. Do not disable smart...

    XT8 using 2.4ghz as backhaul even though worse than 5ghz

    Are you using DFS channels? If so, it takes around 10 minutes for the radio to come online. Only other issue could be signal. WiFi bounces off walls and it isn't always obvious where to place nodes. Experiment by moving them around and recording the rssi levels.

    Asus RT-AX92U 160Mhz bandwith ignored

    It seems like you are unfortunately being hit by radar. However, one setting (in addition to what you've already done) that you should select is "AX only" This will prevent AC devices joining that band and slowing it down.

    RT AX86U - Help me improving my latency please! Bufferbloat?

    Yes, you said Bell is offering fibre. If I was you, I'd ditch the cable modem and go for that.
