Okay okay, I know loads of threads pop up about slow wireless speeds. But i've googled and looked and not sure how to resolve this issue.
In my house i've recently got a new Asus RT-N56U Dual-Band gigabit router. Upstairs i've got a D-Link wireless N router which connects as a repeater and allows my server to connect by LAN cable to the network.
I've noticed problems with the network when trying to host a Minecraft server. Okay the server isn't exactly high end, but even with no players online it struggles and I think the network is to blame.
I ran LAN Speed Test and it shows a throughput of just 19mbps to the server. I thought this may be due to the set up with the 2 routers so tried connecting to a Wireless N enabled laptop that connects straight to the main router within the same room.
Speed = 22mbps
Surely this is much too slow? I tried to connect up the computer and 2nd router on the 5Ghz channel to improve speeds but sadly, the router refused any connection on 5Ghz.
Can someone shed light on this? I'm really not sure if 22mbps is correct?
I pinged the server whilst it was on idle with no network traffic:
