I have 3 P9s and 2 M5s as my mesh. We've been running stable "yet slow" for the last 6 months or so but now I'm seeing speeds as low a 6mb down. That is if I get a connection at all. It's not xfinity that is the problem. It's definitely the decos. The are so unstable right now. I have the latest firmware all are connecting fine. We have gigabit internet and 6mb speeds on our network is UNACCEPTABLE. 
 

what can I do here. I'm pissed I spent the money on this as I've never Ever seen speeds over 30 mb while connected to the decos. Even sitting right next to the main deco now I'm pulling 17mb down and 3mb up. WTF!

Could probably be the Ethernet cable going from the Deco to the modem if speeds are also slow near the main Deco. Swap out the main unit with another Deco to see if the current main Deco is causing the slowdown.

 

Go to your QoS, if you have a section to indicate your internet speed, put 1000 Mbps up and down.

I just used the Wireless assistant on the Deco app and I get this info:

 

WiFi Signal: Strong

Internet Speed:

  Down:  4.6 Mbps

  Up:  48.9 Mbps

 

Ping:  Slow Response

  Gateway: 116.46ms

  www.google.com:  283.62 ms

 

 

My wife is connected directly to the router itself and is getting 430Mbps down and 120Mbps Up.
