We had internal debates about different SSIDs for 2.4 vs 5 GHz, but in the end, this is the optimal configuration we landed on.
I was also surprised by how slow S3 was with a single download connection, but really fast when using aria2 to parallelize the download.
- lathiat 8y agoI use either axel or lftp’s pget (works on SFTP) all the time. Being in Australia the 200-400ms latency means I frequently wont get full speed otherwise.
- brian-armstrong 8y agoPutting 2.4 and 5 onthe same SSID is a recipe for sadness. OSX does very poorly at deciding which band it should be on, and 2.4 is largely useless in most of SF. OSX also tends to be pretty sticky. The worst is that it uses RSSI as its metric rather than SNR.
- sbradford26 8y agoI know that at least with my Ubiquiti access points I simply set them to prefer 5G and they will move clients over to that. I have had limited issues with roaming and such with that enabled.
- basch 8y agoThe recommended setting for Band Steering is Balanced I believe. Probably depends on how many clients are connecting.
- kalleboo 8y agoYeah what I've done (at home) is use separate SSIDs, everything connects to 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz is only for legacy devices without 5 GHz support.
