I am using the latest stable firmware for the MT6000 router. After some time connected, certain devices on the 5GHz band experience reduced speeds. Examples include a GL-AR750s in repeater mode and an Amazon Echo Show 5.
I noticed that initially, they connect using an 80MHz channel width, but after a while, the connection drops to 20MHz on these devices, causing a sharp decrease in download speeds. In the case of the AR750s, the upload speed remains normal. I tested this using both 80MHz and 160MHz channel widths config, always on 11a/n/ac/ax.
Firmware information, closed-source firmware or open-source firmware? Corresponding version number?
I tested with closed source firmware 4.6.8 and 4.6.4. Both have the same problem. But... firmware 4.6.2 doesn't have the issue! So it's something that change from firmware 4.6.2 to 4.6.4
Collect the WiFi logs, SSH into the device to capture it from the normal to abnormal process: cat /proc/kmsg& logread -f&
