slow wifi throughput

Tue Oct 30, 2018 6:46 am

Hi,

I hope someone can help me. All our laptops, cellphones and tablets are wireless, hence only using a RouterBOARD cAP Gi-5acD2nD.

Copying data from one laptop to another is excruciating slow. I am lucky if I get about 620KB/s. I used Teracopy to measure this.

Browsing network folders on another laptop, even if it's just one shared folder with a handful of documents, takes a couple minutes just to show the remote files. The MT AP is about 10m from the laptops.

Code: Select all

 /export hide-sensitive 
# oct/30/2018 06:42:43 by RouterOS 6.43.2
# software id = MKII-15HB
#
# model = RouterBOARD cAP Gi-5acD2nD
# serial number = 817E07FC6F48

Re: slow wifi throughput

Tue Oct 30, 2018 8:01 am

I also want to add that our internet is extremely slow. Our LTE is capable of 40Mbps, and I have, when connected directly to it with a LAN cable, on different occasions, been able to test about 35Mbps on www.speedtest.net.

Going through the wireless, I get about 1.5Mbps at the moment. http://www.speedtest.net/result/7758340444

This is the setting, if you use winbox, that worked for me. I went from 10-20 mbit to 250 (that is my max dsl) when I removed tkip from the 5 ghz radio.
