wifi limit 20 mbps

Mon Feb 06, 2023 8:11 pm

Hi,
just set up wifi interfaces on Chateau 5G ax. When connecting through ethernet cable the downlaod speed is 150-200 mbps. However when connect via wifi, the downlaod speed only 20 mbps.

Many thanks,

Without more info, lots of issues could be causing this...

- firmware/software version (v7 still has issues)
- interfaces not set properly
- interference from neighbouring devices on 2.4 GHz
- Distance and walls (worse on 5 GHz)
- Device not behaving as expected with the MikroTik radio
- Bad configuration

I've seen reports of 600-800 Mbps on these new AX devices, so 20 is not normal. BTW, user bpwl has posted lots of great advice over the years on how to troubleshoot/tweak wireless issues if you do a search...

sounds like you might have "tkip" ciphers enabled in security profile
