Hi,

currently setup the Ubiquiti nanastation m5 point to point link in the office (testing before installing on-site). Maximum speed is 80mbps yet my internet connection directly to the router is 900mbps. This is via a wireless access point (which does give out 800mbps when plugged into the router so it's not that) and a hardwire into the second nanostation for testing also gives out just 70-80mbps.

When logging into the devices it does say they support 300/300mbps. Could this be because they are currently only 2 foot away from each other?

Any help much appreciated.

Nope.

300/300 is the maximum PHY link you will get when the radios are on 40Mhz channel width.

M5 radios are not really capable of doing the 900Mb you want, if you wanted 900Mb then really you should be looking at 60Ghz radios over a short line of sight distance as 60Ghz can do 1Gb full duplex.
