[Q] Wifi link speed - Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Do you know maximum wifi link speeds over 2.4 and 5 ghz?
In my home network with 2.4ghz wifi n I get max 54mbit link, while with the tablet I get 117mbit at the same place (right next to the router).
With 5ghz would I get higher link speed??
Thanks,
Edgar

I have same problem, in my phone the download is more fast than my pc (it is hardware difference, i belive) But in some servers download speed is more fast than others, and for premium users the speed is maximum and you might

maximun link speed 150 mps in 5 ghz mode non even better. in 2.4 ghz 54 mps

[Q] Can a Nook do better than 54 mbps Connection

Wondering if there is anything that can be done to get a Nook to connect at faster than 54 mbps G speeds? Does it really have a N wireless chip? I have searched and searched and cant find an answer to this.
According to the spec sheet, the wireless radio chip does support N. I'm not sure whether the software supports it
Radio: Chip ID Ti wl1271 (kernel reports wl1273) Chip supports bluetooth transmit/recieve and fm radio functions through the same antenna, but is not enabled in software drivers. Connectivity: 802.11b/g/n Security: WEP/WPA/WPA2/802.1x Mode: Infrastructure

I get N connectivity via CM7 - been so long since I ran stock that I don't recall.

Yamadog, do you currently have a n router that you are trying to connect too?
I've read before that the Nook Color wifi chip only supports 2.4 GHz range (which is used for both 11g and 11n) but not 5 GHz range (which is only for 11n). If you have a b/g/n/ router running in compatibility mode for all three types then it might possibly be doing 11n only at 5 GHz and 11b/g only at 2.4 GHz and so your Nook would never be able to see the 11n signal. Try putting your router in 11n-only mode and see what happens
I'm on CM7 and I've never seen a rate above 54mbps regardless of N availability.

I have no problem with the connection its just it connects at only 54 mbps which limits download speeds to around 11 mbps Max. My computers connect at 270 to300 mbps at download at my full 24 mbps speeds. I did have a g only router and it limited my computers to only 11 mbps like the nook. Aipparently the g rating of 54 mbps is just under ideal lab conditions and not really obtainable.
According to my home N router, the Nook Color connects at 54mbps but N is in use. For some reason that is the max rate it will use. I've seen this happen with other N devices when WMM is disabled on the client.
Whoa sorry never really answered you. My router is a cheapo 2.4 ghz n but it does allow 300 mbps connections. I have to run it in b,g,n mode because our wii is only g wifi.

I bet that's the case with mine too, but I haven't checked. It does pick up signals like its running n though.

802.11n operates on both 2.4GHz (20MHz bandwidth) and 5GHz (40MHz bandwidth).
Anyway, how do you guys check out the rate on the NC?

I know, but I've heard of routers that do compatibility mode by segregating g and n between the 2.4 and 5 GHz antennas

Didnt realize all n routers did this. Checked mine and it shows my computer on 40 mhz and Nook on 20.
To check Nook connection link speed just click on the connected network and it lists all info for it.

I checked and did not have WMM enabled on my router. Enabled and although the connection speed still says 54 mbps, I recorded much higher, sometimes double, the download speed vs WMM turned off. Thanks! It might be a fluke but the speeds were not far off my desktop.
Actually it is a fluke. All along I have been using the android app for speed test to check my nook and it shows roughly half the speed vs the regular desktop speed page of speed test. Oh well at least I know I'm getting all the speed out of it.
fyi the Wifi chip is capable of up to 65mbps. I've seen this rate from other tablets with TI WLAN chips on my router. I haven't a clue why the Nook Color won't go that high. Not on any N router I've connected to.
I even took a look at the tiwlan.ini file but I don't see anything apparent in there. N appears to be enabled.

wifi link speed

What is the fastest wifi link speed (lan speed) that HTC One is capable of?
I have a Sprint HTC One running stock 4.1.2.
I have a Netgear WNDR3400 v1 wifi-n router (300 + 300) with both the 2.4 and 5 Hz bands active.
Security is WPA2-PSK and I have mac filtering enabled on an access control list.
With the HTC One, I can't seem to connect faster than 150 Mbps on either 2.4 Ghz or 5Ghz bands whereas my Win7 laptop can connect at 300 Mbps each time.
Do I need to download any specific wifi drivers for the HTC One to achieve a wifi link speed higher than 150 Mbps?
Are there any custom ROMs that offer this natively?

Try enabling best wi-fi performance, if that does fix it I wouldn't recommend it using it will chew up your battery. There is really no reason needing a 300 megabit connection other than benchmarking it.

[Q] Slow Internet Speed on Wifi Nokia Lumia 1520

I am facing a slow speed using wifi on the lumia 1520. For sure there is something wrong with the wireless card or the drivers.
1. The internet speed while connected to wireless that i get on the 1520 is half or even more less than what i get on my desktop (connected wirelessly) or on my other phones (both being android). I get a 25Mbps download & upload both on the computer as well as on both the android phones. But on the Lumia it will hardly even cross 10Mbps for download and 16 Mbps for upload.
The issue with the speed is really strange because if i connect the phone to a 2.4 Ghz network i get upto 10 Mbps download and 16 Mbps upload speed.But if i connect the phone to a 5 Ghz N network then the download speed i get is 0.67 Mbps and upload 14 Mbps. Whereas both my androids have a download and upload speed of 25 Mbps no matter whether connected to a 2.4 Ghz or 5 Ghz network.
I have changed different channels on the router and have almost everything including resetting the router as well as resetting the phone but no luck. The phone is OOB lumia black OS.
Any ideas anyone.
What router do you have? My internet speed is 55mb down and 6mb up. I get 56 to 58 down and 6 to 7 up on my phone. I have an Asus AC1900 router. This phone has been one of the better phones I have owned when it comes to WiFi speed.

I have a netgear wndr 3700v2 router . I was able to resolve the 0.67 Mbps speed issue on the 5Ghz N channel by enabling WMM on the 5 GHZ channel however still the speeds are half of what is the internet connection speed.
The surprising part is that after enabling WMM the speeds on the note 2 when connected to the 5 Ghz N channel reach the proper internet speed as on a wired ie:- 39 Mbps but on 1520 they hardly cross 15 Mbps download .On the note 2 or my other android as well as my desktop the download and upload speed is proper on both the channels 2.4 as well as 5 Ghz. This indicates tht the router is fine.
I think i have to contact nokia support to have this checked. I am not sure as to what else to apart from this.
Same issue on a N97, wifi is muuuuuuuuuuuuch slower than 3G. Some messages I got about certificates let me suspect the preinstalled Boingo appli. All worked fine on my previous 5730.

Wifi Speed just 100 mbps?

i cannot get more than 100 mbps on speed test and i am on a 191 mpbs connection, why is that? thanks tried few speed testers...

Do u guys have the same
I think such a model, it's decent. Over 100 Mbps is only for Flagship.
Really like s8?. My old galaxy s5 would peak T 180 mbps or whatever here can do...
So isnt a tweak or something? Thanks
OK i have both phone now here:
s5 link speed 866 mbps which is the same my Asus PC (fairly new) connects at
a6 link speed 150 mbps
what gives???? can i change this somehow? it's not great..
thanks,!
think i found the problem, it's doenst support AC wireless
s5 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac
a6 802.11 a, b, g, n
s8 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac
so i guess there's nothing i can do about it ;(
also all of a sudden my wifi symbol at home had the ! as if something was wrong, i had to manually input some DNS from OpenDNS in connection settings, really odd, connection works fine and the S5 i have at home didnt have that problem, really odd this A6.......

Low wifi speed

I have noticed that my Mi A2 does not show full speed on wifi.
I have a 100 Mbps connection, which when I connect via my laptop clocks at around 92+ Mbps, but on my A2 it only clocks about 50 Mbps.

Check which type of wifi your router can provide.
From Wikipedia : There are many different versions of Wi-Fi: 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n (Wi-Fi 4[40]), 802.11h, 802.11i, 802.11-2007, 802.11-2012, 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5[40]), 802.11ad, 802.11af, 802.11-2016, 802.11ah, 802.11ai, 802.11aj, 802.11aq, 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6[40]), 802.11ay.
One of the most popular wifi norm used over the years is the 802.11.g, which is capped at 54 Mbps. Could be an answer.

Just tested at home.
I have a 350 Mbps connection. I get 120 Mbps in download, and 40 Mbps in upload. (can't post pic)
I think my router must use 802.11ad, but I'd have to check.
---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------
Back again, made more tests.
Be sure to connect to a 5 GHz band. My router can use 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
I'm getting way worse results on the 2.4 band. So use the 5 GHz if you can.

Either its using 40mhz channel bandwidth (144mbps per "antena") or it has dual antenas (2x 72mbps at 20mhz or 2x 144mbps aka 300mbps at 40mhz).
Mi A2 only has one for 2.4ghz (72mbps at 20mhz or 144 at 40mhz) and one for 5ghz (433mbps at 40mhz and 200ish mbps at 20mhz if im not mistaken)

So I should force my router to use 40Mhz band? What other settings should I be using? I also have a WiFi Range extender, not sure if that supports using different bands.

I forced my router to 802.11n with a 40Mhz Channel Width. Disabled my extender. Made sure my A2 was the only device connected, still speed is capped at 50 Mbps.

40mhz is a bad ideia for 2.4GHz since to do it it overlaps channels wich most probably are already in use around you.
on my Mi A2 on 2.4ghz i always get around 50mbps (72 minus overhead) which seems just fine. The phone is fine.
on 5GHz i get my 200mbps.... your laptop probably has MIMO technologie
Ok thank you for the explanation, I'll just upgrade my router, and probably check if I still need the range extender, then maybe upgrade that too
Check your wireless AP? Or try it with another AP?
All redmi phone only getting 50mbps on 802.11n on 2.4GHz
All redmi phone only getting 50mbps on 802.11n on 2.4GHz i have test. I have redmi note 7 pro latest and a Realme note 5 pro and a laptop, my wifi connection is 75mbps. When i test the speed then in Redmi note 7 pro is always getting 50mbps or below it cannot goes beyond 50mbps but in Realme 5 pro and in my laptop both are getting full speed around 72mbps..
Therefore you all have not any issue with your wifi router the problem is only in your Mi devices....
If you don't trust then check and compare the speed with any mobile and u will get to know the Mi devices is only limited to 50mbps.
I know that i have a alternative option , if i use 5Ghz router and my redmi note 7 pro also support 5GHz but my question is why Mi devices are failed to getting speed on 2.4GHz where all others brand are getting 802.11n speed.
I don't want to get alternative if anyone has the solution then post here otherwise we know the alternative so pls do provide alternative option.

You are not entirely correct. Maybe it is a Redmi throttle because on my Mi X6 my speed runs to around 100Mbps on 2.4Ghz and reaches around 350Mbps on my 5Ghz connection . My internet connection is a 1000Mbps connection but I only achieve that speed on my computer with gigabit ethernet and cat5 cabled connection. Never by WiFi .

Agreee. I have a Xiami MI A2 and I used to get +70 Mbps in 2.4 Ghz and +150 Mbps in 5 Ghz. A couple of days ago I had issues with my router and had to restart it and now I can´t get more than 30 Mbps in both 2.4 and 5 Ghz... but I also got the March security update in the phone so not sure what´s causing the issue. I´m quite sure it´s the phone because other devices perform fine in the network.
you can solve the WiFi speed by using custom kernel Agni for example. Try the different libs to see which work best . But so yes Xiaomi throttled WiFi in newer versions ..custom kernel like agni gives option in aroma to choose another modified or older lib . This will double your speed .

Hey sorry to bump a thread like this, but it seems it's not an issue many persist with as most internet connections are usually below 50Mbps so users don't notice the issue.
I've got a new Redmi Note 11, and along with an old Redmi Note 8 I have, both have limited WiFi speeds on both 2.4G and 5G networks at 48Mbps for some reason.
Your claim that Xiaomi throttled the WiFi in newer versions makes the most sense, so I have a question if you don't mind. Would just going for the latest Agni kernel do for me? I'll be trying to port TWRP to this new phone and see if I can flash the newest Agni, from there is there anything more to do? Will the WiFi speed be back to normal?
