From the screenshots you were connected on the 2.4 band so you wouldn't get near the 500Mbps line speed, maybe on 5ghz band you can get closeIm on a 500mb line fibre

Thats odd - the PHY Speed, Channel width and Signal strength looks fine so you SHOULD be able to get between 350 and 450Mbps
For comparison - here are my readings from (similar) statsThats odd - the PHY Speed, Channel width and Signal strength looks fine so you SHOULD be able to get between 350 and 450Mbps
But then surely it wouldn't negotiate at GBE?It looks like something along the chain is not negotiating at the right speed or something.
I think i connected on wifi 6 now I have to figure out why the speedtest is so bad. Yes I think meshing is enabledI’m trying to remember your other network settings- do you have meshing enabled perhaps?
Is it possible you have some speed limits / QOS settings on the network / wifi?I think i connected on wifi 6 now I have to figure out why the speedtest is so bad. Yes I think meshing is enabled
I need to check the router its the only place thay could be happening unless the cabling is suspect. But if I connect via cable I get full 500mb so I doubt its the router. There are 2 switched both unmanaged so will try connect wired to both and see if maybe there is an issue thereIs it possible you have some speed limits / QOS settings on the network / wifi?
Looks like your new ap is uplinking on the old wifi4 mesh not cable. It can happen even when you are powered by poe from a switch if there is an issue with the cabling, or from the switch through an injector. In some weird cases having to forget and readopt is necessary. What does unifi say is the uplink?I see that all the AP's are at WIFI 4, the list of APs are:
3 x AC LR
1 x U7 Lite
Why would the U7 Lite still be saying wifi 4?

That would explain your poor speed. Why is your shiny new ap in the garage or is that where you serve the most wireless from? My oldest ap is in the garage
What does your speed test look like now?Figured it out, the Switch was on VLAN, can you believe it, this after running a brand new Cat6a Cable - you dont even want to know.......
It was around 450mbWhat does your speed test look like now?
