Hi everyone
id like to consider myself a BIT tech savy but i need the great minds of those that are way more knowledgeable then i am to give their input on this, as i am not sure if there is anything i can do to improve my home network situation
I Have some devices here that connect to each other via a Home Network
Desktop:
Running Windows 10 w/ Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller 10/100/1000 Mbps NIC
connected to router Via LAN cable Cat5e
Router:
Netgear AC1750 R6400-100NAS
5ghz network
Android Device #1-5
Dual-band, dual-antenna Wi-Fi (MIMO) supports 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi networks
NO ETHERNET PORT
so anyways, story is Desktop one Transfers a single Zip file compressed to each of the 5 android devices around the house at the same time. some times it ends up being more then 5 devices. when i do the speed drops way low, obviously right? Dekstop is physically connected to the LAN port of the Router, the router then sends the file over WiFi 5ghz network. the devices are only maybe 3 feet away from the router
i want to improve on the speed when doing this but i have no idea where to begin. im not looking to go faster im just looking to have that extra "highway lane" that allows the data to transfer without dragging down the speeds like crazy? what can i do?
