I’m having a heck of a time trying to get the Beryl Router to achieve as close to the advertised 867 Mbps as possible
I have a computer that is capable of achieving ~650 Mbps on a different brand router
Using this same device, I can currently only achieve ~220 Mbps to the Beryl
Without consideration for the client machine, here is what I have done on the Beryl:
turned off 2.4 GHz on router
tried increasing bandwidth - attempted the 20/40/80 , the 40 only, and the 80 only options - no speed variance any way configured
router has the WAN port connected to my switch (same switch as other brand router), client device is connected via WiFi
tried various power modes (low, medium, high) - no speed variance
tried positioning router in various place around the room - 1 ft away, 3 ft, 5 ft, 10 ft, etc - no speed variance
confirmed cable is CAT 6 (same cable as used with other brand router)
turned off all misc settings to prevent bogging down the hardware (i.e. DNS protection, firwall, etc)
Again, I can take my client machine, connect it to the other brand router and get ~650 Mbps data transfer speeds, and the SAME client with the SAME WAN cable to the Beryl router gets me ~220 Mbps speeds
Please advise on further troubleshooting steps to take. I understand that achieving a perfect 867 Mbps is unrealistic, but 1/4 the speed is just unacceptable. This is not an enterprise device, but I’m struggling to understand where the failure lies. Please assist
The actual speed of 5G of MT1300 is aroud 300Mbps Download and 200Mbps Upload in my own test.
I can get 500Mbps Download/Upload (My ISP Limitation) by using Lan Cable connection.
No fix at this time, been wrapped up in other projects and asked to leave this one as-is for now
The alternative WAP was a spare new out of box Ubiquiti UAP-AC-HD
The NIC in question was a Wi-Fi 6 AX200
Settings for both above devices were at default at ~650 Mbps
I’m not a WiFi expert - enterprise routers and switches are more my wheelhouse - and I understand there are hardware limitations, but I haven’t found a single online source that has been able to achieve near-optimal WiFi speeds with this device
Selling a device on its protocol speeds seems dishonest, and if there are caveats of having achieved these speeds in a lab, it’d be much appreciated if someone could link those
