Model: Archer C50  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 200608

I was previously on a 33mbps plan which when connected through wifi would give exact same speed. But now I have a 100mbps plan the speed has dropped to 12-13mbps for 2.4ghz and 30-35 for 5ghz.Settings are all same ethernet is cat5e and LAN when directly connected to modem gives 100mbps and ethernet connected through c50 gives 75-80mbps but wifi still giving 12-13. What can be done?

@Nihal. 

 

Firstly, it is suggested to reset the C50 to factory defaults by holding the reset button on it until all the LEDs go off then on, reconfigure it from scratch, leave all the settings by default, only build up the internet access and secure the wireless network, then test the speed again. Ensure there is only one device connected to the router when you do the speed test.

 

If the wireless speed is still slow, try to run a Wi-Fi analyzer to find a clear channel for both the 2.4G and 5G network, then change the channel width to 40MHz for the 2.4G, and 80MHz to 5G, reboot the router and reconnect to the wireless network, then confirm again. BTW, what is the link speed when the device is connected to the wireless network? You can check it as per the below instruction:
