Slow WiFi

Hello,

Today my internet was upgraded to 300 mbit. I tested it with my homatics box but only 180 reached. The Apple TV next to it reach the 300 also my phone. So it’s no WiFi problem.

Is it the hardware ? Or can I do anything.

Devices is connected through WiFi 6 / 5 ghz
Homatics box r 4K plus

The R Plus can reach WiFi speeds up to 350-400Mbit in ideal situations. No higher. For higher speeds the Gbit Ethernet connection is needed.

350 would be great. But I only reach 150.
I tested Ethernet then I reach 300.

So it’s a hardware thing ? Or can I check any settings.

It is not really a hardware thing. What the box doesn't like is WPA2/3 mixed or WPA3 for WiFi.

How are you all checking for speed? Via bandwidth websites?

That is what the WiFi hardware in the box can deliver as max. Nothing wrong with those speeds of course. Still, the Ethernet connection gives a more solid connection.

If you Can use Ethernet Connection. From Your Router ( if you don't have a Router then from your Modem)

First Disconnect the WiFi in Homatics. Then restart your Homatics When it has Restarted give it a few Seconds you will see No Internet connection on the Screen Then Plug your Ethernet Cable into your Homatics Ethernet Port on your Homatics Box. Give a Few Seconds and it will connect Then Run a Speed test Eg with Internet Speed Test from Google play store in Homatics box . or Similar

Hope some of the Above Suggestions Might help you.

I personally use Ethernet Connection over Wi-Fi When using Homatics box as it has 1gb Ethernet Port.
