optimise ax3 Wireless AP

Sun Apr 14, 2024 6:31 pm

I have hAP ax3 wifi connected to a UB5009 router. My house has thick stone walls and some rooms are getting a poor signal with 20MBps from a 1GBps supply to the router, However, sitting right next to the router has 125MBps max on the 2.4 radio.


What options can I have for improving the performance of the wifi? in software and in terms of position and antennae placement. I previously used a linksys MESH w 3 boxes.
My config is below. Many thanks
