How come? I generally get between 800-1200Mbps on 802.11ac, real, measured speed with iPerf3.
- randie63 9y agohe only has one wifi antenna , so max 433Mbit. If your Router/Access Point and your client has more then you will also have more speed. 867Mbit with 2 antennas and so on
- matt_wulfeck 9y agoWhat wifi router do you use? Also, do you use custom firmware?
- 4ad 9y agoI use Mikrotik access points: https://routerboard.com https://routerboard.com I use several models, check out the dual concurrent triple chain ones like: https://mikrotik.com/product/RB962UiGS-5HacT2HnT https://mikrotik.com/product/RB962UiGS-5HacT2HnT I wrote a little bit about my set-up here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14743866 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14743866 > Also, do you use custom firmware? No, just standard Mikrotik firmware.
