[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 946823, member: 82776"] Two solutions ;) 1. You must have messed up the router settings to lose over half your bandwidth on QoS, set them back to default. Half of the "how to configure your router blogs and web-articles" are are based on old (counter productive) information. Don't disable beam forming and QoS and tweak application and device traffic priority only mildly. 2. Alternatively you could buy a a cheaper TP-Link. I have QoS and TrendMicro enabled and it only takes 3 to 5 percent from my download speed on my TP-Link C4000 ** ** My girlfriend got this tri-band router by passing a security awareness online test at het employer. Her company gave their employees home work desk (which one can also use standing), chair, large monitor and ergonomic keyboard/mouse and paid the Ziggo XXL-start internet (currently 150 MB/s), because they had to work at home during Covid19 lock down. Their IT-department offered to configure one on the two 5Ghz bands for work usage (VPN pass through etc) , so stutter and distortion was minimal in we team meetings Their IT tech were the ones who tipped me on using a higher 5GHZ channel in the SPF -range and explained me about the myths being told and published by 'expert' bloggers. The Largest Dutch ISP hinders/discourages people to use higher 5 Ghz frequencies (in the past Ziggo only allowed using 5Ghz up to channel 56). Picture 1 shows a typical Dutch street with many colliding and overlapping 2.4 GHz Wifi networks. Picture 2 illustrates the benefits of buying a router which allows you to use those higher 5Ghz DFS channels. [/QUOTE]
