Hi
Just got the Archer GE800 to update my Archer C5200
I have the following issues
1- In some rooms ( around 6 meters away ) I get not less than 75% of the signal , but the speed is very slow, my connection is speed is 1gb , but what I get 3-5mb, i tried the smart connect , 6ghz, 5ghz, 2.4ghz, and the MLO , all the same.
my older AC5200 gave much better speed
2- The 6Ghz sometimes disappear, or won't connect.
3- MLO is slower than 2.4/5Ghz ( Smart connect )
problem 2 & 3 , maybe will be solved with firmware update, or is it something wrong with the router?
But number 1 , is the main problem for me, why do i have good signal but really poor speed?
I even tried an extender ( RE650 ) just to see the result , the 2.4ghz in the extender connected to the router with no issue, but the 5ghz did not.
i tried both smart connect or separate the 2.4 and 5ghz in the router, still the extender could not connect to the 5ghz. whenever I scan for available network , the router 5Ghz never shows up.
So , is there any special setting I need to do , wait for an update , return the router, or go for other brand?
am thinking to swtich to ( ASUS RT-BE98 pro ) , am I gonna get better speed?
