Hello there. I'm having a quality of life issue with my Flint 2. It's about 25% slower than the modem/router thing from my previous provider (we were switched to fiber 1000/1000 last week, instead of cable 1000/100 in my case) when transferring files to my NVME-based NAS.
It'll settle around 60 MB/s via wi-fi from my iMac, where the other one would reach 80 when the conditions were favourable (I can see up to 40 wireless networks in Homedale). The results are the same no matter if I'm using Finder, Commander One or Owlfiles. Network Acceleration on or off in the Flint 2 makes no difference. A Speedtest of the connection easily gets me 750/750 and sometimes over 800 down.
I've tried transferring the same test file (a rip of my "Accident" Hong Kong release Blu-ray I made because the disc is in danger of rotting) from my Mac Mini to the NAS. They're both connected to the router via ethernet cable, and it got to about 75-80 MB/s. Better, but still well short of the theoretically possible 125 via cable.
As mentioned, we're dealing with a quality of life issue. I love the router otherwise. OpenWRT is no-nonsense software at its best and wireless internet speeds are nuts. It's only the local file transfer issue that's not quite where I think it should be. I would very much appreciate any suggestions.
All routers did not limit the local speed, the max-speed bottleneck should be close to the WLAN/LAN negotiation rate, mostly also based on the true environment situation, like WLAN/WiFi signal interference, etc.
May try change idle channel and fixed it.
May try bandwidth 80MHz or 160MHz.
May try change country code.
If not, may try the OP24 firmware with brand new installation.
The only thing that changed is I switched my old provider router for the Flint 2, and the local file transfer speed dropped by 25%. Transfer between two devices connected via ethernet cable (one cat 5e and one cat 7) is also well short of the theoretically possible speed. I know for a fact that the NAS can receive data at somewhere around 250 MB/s.
Ahh. Yes, I have tried various channels before. To no avail, of course. Wired local file transfer also seems to be throttled, so we're not just dealing with a wi-fi issue anyway. Remember, I get up to 825/750 when doing Speedtests on the wi-fi connection.
Thank you. I had not "discovered" this settings menu before It made no difference, unfortunately.
It is. I have previously tried using one of the 1G ports, and that made no difference either.
It made no difference, unfortunately.
