Hi need some technical help here.
I bought the ubiquity amplify hd (mesh) a while ago, but have not been getting satisfactory speeds.
my subscribed speeds is 1Gb up and 1 Gb down. On wired I do get in excess of 900mbps so I definitely have close to what i pay for on wire.
now because my modem that links to the outside internet is in a very bad position in an enclosed room, I have used my amplify as an AP (bridged mode) instead. The main unit is now in a more central position.
amplify main unit - hardwired via switch - modem. 125~mbps
amplify main unit -- wireless -- to satellite/beacon 1 whatever you call them.
amplify main unit -- wireless -- to satellite/beacon 2 whatever you call them.
in this setup, i get only 120-125mbps. I mean this is what i get too on non mesh single asus routers...
asus ac3200 - wired via switch - modem - 185mbps
I am on cat7 cables too.
My question now is, to enjoy high speeds of say 300 and up, does my amplify need to be the modem that connects to the outside internet? I am on the verge of changing to the eeros gen2 because i am not satisfied with this result but dont want to end in the same state if this is technically not possible... or somewhere in my setup there is a problem? like i am not getting fantastic speeds too on the asus ac3200.
some advise will help thanks guys.
