WiFi slow?

[neroangra]

Hello all,

I am loving the R5S so far. I have recently purchased two of the recommended USB WiFi adapters, but the performance is terrible! I am only getting 16mbps right next to the antennas.

Here is my config:


Does anyone have any thoughts?

Code: Select all

config wifi-device 'radio0'
        option type 'mac80211'
        option path 'platform/usbhost/fd000000.dwc3/xhci-hcd.4.auto/usb5/5-1/5-1                                                                                  :1.0'
        option channel '149'
        option band '5g'
        option htmode 'NOHT'
        option disabled '0'

config wifi-iface 'default_radio0'
        option device 'radio0'
        option network 'lan'
        option mode 'ap'
        option ssid 'FriendlyWrt-f6:30:89'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option key '[redacted]'

Instead of using NOHT mode, you can try enabling HT20 or HT40 to utilize wider channel widths, which can improve throughput.
