MikroTik hAP ax3 poor WiFi performance

Same here with hAP ax3.

  • Client MacBook Air M2 (AX) iperf3 sending > WiFi1 (5G) + ether1 in one bridge > ether1 > nuc8 350-750 Mbit/s (quiet unstable…)

Client MacBook Air M2 (AX) iperf3 receiving < WiFi1 (5G) + ether1 in one bridge < ether1 < nuc8 70-120 Mbit/s (quiet unstable…)

Client MacBook Air M2 (AX) iperf3 receiving < WiFi1 (5G) < ether5 pppoe < fibre nuc8 35 Mbit/s (stable, WAN 100% saturated)

What?

  • If the traffic is routed and natted its fast(er) and stable

If the traffic is bridged it’s unstable and it’s really slow if WiFi of ax3 is sending
