Access Point gives only half the speed

2020-06-09 19:15:45

Model: TL-WA901ND

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

I have an ASUS 87U Router which despitates signal pretty much throughout the house but for some parts. To this part, I have a wired LAN running from the ASUS router. I have placed a WA 901ND 450 mbps using the LAN port and set it up as an access point.

However, while the ASUS gives us a consistent speed of 230+ mbps, the WA 901ND, for reasons beyond me, does not give out more than 90mbps. I would think this is signifcant dip in speed. The LAN cable when directly tested also clocks about 230+.

I thought access points wouldnt have a lot of speed loss. Atleast not to the extent I am experiencing.

Please help in this regard.

TIA

@Parshuram

Hi, the speed from the 901ND access point seems quite normal, as it is equipped with a 100M Ethernet port.

If you want to get more than 100M, you may need an access point with gigabit Ethernet port.
