Deco M5 - anyone know if it support over 100MB WiFi (WAN)
Hello everyone, happy 2021, wonder if I can get some assistance, with the following:
Deco M5 - anyone know if it support over 100MB WiFi (WAN) - I have just upgraded my ISP speed but not sure if deco's are throttling it.
According to the manual it shows that it has 2 gigbit ethernet ports but does not detail the wifi capacity, the Mp units state that support wifi over 100mbps.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jim

Thanks for the prompt response. the connection speed has been fluctuating all day so perhaps I need to give it a window to settle down. Although found earlier if I disconnected the M5s that I could hit 270mbps but when connected getting about 30-50mbps. However I am also seeing with the M5s disconnected the speed dropping to 70mbps - so clearly something is amiss. Ticket opened with ISP to monitor but wanted to ensure the M5 would support up to the 350mbps

If you suspect ISP Internet issues or connectivity between M5 and ISP router, you can run Test Internet Speed from Deco app, which is speedtest ran from inside Main Deco to Internet.
Run it few time, if you see numbers substantially fluctuating that must be ISP.
This is what I am getting on last test I just ran, and it is close to what I am getting through WiFi on smartphone.

If you are running your Deco mesh in Router mode, you may wish to check if you need to increase value of QoS parameter to match new Internet speed. There are multiple duscussions on this forum on that topic, also FAQ article 1601 reviewing QoS feature may be of help.
