I've owned an A50 for a year, on Comcast with the newest router XB7. After running speed tests with my A50 and iPhone 8 plus. The A50 gets 330 down speed and the iPhone 8 gets over 600 both tested on the 5ghz side. None of the phones are wifi 6. I also own a Samsung S5E tablet that also gets 330 on testing. Can some explain to me why that is? Thanks
Can someone at least post the max speeds you get on a 5ghz network
Thanks

Hello,
I have just switched fiber provider at my place (FTTH) and I am now getting a whopping 1000 Mbps on my connection via gigabit ethernet.
My ISPs internet "box" luckily comes with 4 gigabit ports but only 2.4 Ghz WiFi (...). Which means that what actually reaches my portable devices is somewhere between 20 to 70 mbps, depending on my location in the house.
So, I ordered a Netgear R6220 to connect to my ISPs box, whose WiFi I will disable, hoping to get the most out of my fiber connection.
I see that this router supports simultenous Dual Band (300 + 867) which should exceed my ISPs downstream bitrate. But I wonder whether the 835 on my P2XL will be able to benefit from the simultaneous Dual Band transmission.
According to the specs it should (https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon-835-mobile-platform):
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi Standards: 802.11ad, 802.11ac Wave 2, 802.11a/b/g, 802.11n
Wi-Fi Spectral Bands: 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 60 GHz
Peak speed: 867 Mbps
Channel Utilization: 20/40/80 MHz
MIMO Configuration: 2x2 (2-stream)
Peak QAM: 256 QAM
Wi-Fi Features: MU-MIMO, Multi-gigabit Wi-Fi, Dual-band simultaneous (DBS), Integrated baseband

But since the Peak speed is listed as 867 mbps, I'm not sure...
Anyone was ever able to max out the P2XLs WiFi speed?
Thanks!
This is mine today, I have seen higher from my wifi but this is right now.
This is the best speed i got using the 2XL
1Gbit line using a Asus RT-AX88U router.

Wow, this is impressive! I didn't think our Pixels could reach that level of performance!
I guess that the bottleneck for me will still be on the router, then, since I'm not getting anything quite like yours (smaller budget).
I'm getting from Amazon an R6220 and a couple of Tp Links (archer c7 - 1750 and archer c1200), the best one gets to stay! ?
You should be able to reach decent speeds with any of those routers the only reason I bought this one is so i don't need to buy another rooter any time soon.

There you can find fast access point for low price with high quality, I use only these
Is this max network speed for a70?
This is screenshoot form wifi settings.
On other phones i get 130mbps.
mine says 65. Ultra slow downloads. Heard some people talkin about using the 5 Ghz band of certain equipped routers or n band. It is just so slow downloading from my wlan I figured it must have something greater wrong with it. Like hackers again...who knows.
This is what mine says
On mine is 72mbps network speed and cant get over 49mbps download speeed on speedtest.net
433Mpbs on 802.11AC for me
I get a picture 130 mbps on my oreo device but both pie devices say 65 mBps.
My 1000/100/10 switch connects ethernet to various devices which easily shuttle the expected 80-130 actual MB/s around of large filetypes.
I don't have any sort of 5 Ghz router just the crappy device that the company sent out. And on that the MAC filter keeps getting disabled which increases my paranoia. Till 2 weeks ago I used the same crappy standard gateway/router for 6 years and frankly it was equal or better experience. At least that one started up reasonably fast. And its MAC filter was always on. But that could just indicate that the neighborhood brats had an easy backdoor to that one and didn't have to brute force off the MAC filter.
In my opinion the MAC filter getting disabled (now a few different times it has happened) indicatives a much much larger problem
I have been intending to get my own personal router for a while but there are too many options so I haven't had the scope to choose one yet.
Other phone in network displays 117mbps and is a Pie.
On same network 2.4ghz on s8,s7 i get 130mbps and on a70 72mbps max.
Just tried 5ghz on same network and got 150mbps it is a little faster.
But on 2.4ghz 72mbps is max.
hi guys
i have also same problem . cannot connect more than 72mbps , with 5ghz 150mbps max . something wrong but i could not find what is the problem .
you guys found any solution ?
mine has 72mb on 2.4 and 433mb on 5g...

i think all a70 phones are like that
I just tested and got 158Mbs with a 5Ghz wifi connection, although only around 60Mps on 2.4Ghz.

I'll check mine later and see if I can figure out what's happening
Right next to the router I can see 96mbps in 2.4Ghz
Must be something wrong. I got 433mbps.
Nothing is wrong.
The Snapdragon 675 supports 2x2 chains on WiFi, but the A70 only has a 1x1 antenna so it connects at half the speed.
Link speeds on the A70 are as follows:
2.4 GHz = 72 Mbps
2.4 GHz (with 256 QAM) = 96 Mbps
5 GHz = 433 Mbps
On all devices with 2x2 on WiFi, the speeds above will be doubled on those.
These are in ideal network conditions with great signal strength and low interference. These numbers could reduce if you are far from the router.
This is not abnormal. A lot of mid-range devices only have 1x1 for WiFi.
Hi all,
I've recently purchased 2x Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro's and I've noticed that the WiFi link speeds are hilariously slow for such a modern phone.
2.4g seems to be limited to a max 72mpbs and 5g is limited to 433mbps. Now, before you say 'it's your router grumblegrumble' it isn't. It's a VMG3925-B10B and its capable of much faster wifi link speeds and I know it is because my older LeEco LEMax 2 got a lot more, so do my laptops, and Ipad. Even my 10 year old Dell 1520 gets faster than 72mbps.
So, now that is out of the way, what on earth is going on? I'm certain that this modern phone must be able of quicker wifi speeds especially considering it's reliant on wifi for connectivity?
I've tried entering the mediatek engineering mode on the phone but can't get into the wifi options (wifi needs to be off, operated too much, constant search on etc) which are all set correct but still doesn't let me in.
Any ideas because this is going to bug the hell out of me. 5G is fine but it's still not acceptable.
Well I have on my router about 36MB/s on 5Ghz.
Redmi Note 8 Pro should also support simultaneously connection on 2,4 and 5 GHz WiFi. But not enabled right now for some reasons.

Unfortunately your speed test doesn't mean squat because it's only testing your broadband connection. Not the WiFi link speed between your device and router.
It doesn't seem like there's any extended bandwidth capabilities?

Who was using Bluetooth while using WiFi?
I watch youtube with BT earphones for example, internet is god damned slow, 144p loads for minutes even on 4G... That seems to be a problem of software. Disconnecting BT brings internet back
On a redmi note 8 miui 12 try this: go to settings/location and turn off wifi and bluetooth scanning
I bought a Nexus 5X from ebay a few months ago sold as new condition.
I'm having different issues with the Wifi. First the signal strength and range are much worse than all my other devices. In one room of the house farthest from the router it loses connection every few minutes and maintains a speed test result of less than 10Mbps with 2.4 GHz. With 5 GHz it can't even see the access point.
My OnePlus 7 Pro gets 40+ Mbps on both 2.4 and 5 GHz with no issues at all from the same location.
With a different ethernet connected wireless access point in the room the Nexus 5X gets 25-30 Mbps, which is acceptable but it should be faster considering it has full signal strength.
With the phone right next to the router connected to 5 GHz it will show a full speed of 44 Mbps but file downloads (using thinkbroadband test downloads) never load faster than about 100 KB/s which isn't even close to 44 Mbps. I can't even upload to my local network file share at more than 1 MB/s.
I'm not sure how speedtest.net is showing fast speeds but file transfers are extremely slow. The signal range is much worse than any other device I have.
I had a Nexus 5 before this 5X and didn't start to have wifi issues until it was more than 5 years old. Is it possible that this phone was refurbished but sold as new? Or is this just common and I shouldn't expect better?
I've tried two routers and different Android ROMs from 6.0 up to 9, all with similar results which confirms this is a hardware issue.
I've tried contacting my ISP for these issues in the past but they always respond saying their tests show nothing wrong so its not a problem.
I have the squaretrade warranty from ebay but is it worth it trying to get this issue fixed or if i get another phone will it have the same issue?
Web browsing works fine but file downloads and uploads are extremely slow.
Hi, I've just bought a Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 256GB (Snapdragon) and I am noticing that if I connect it to a 5GHz wireless network (I tried 3 different networks) it has some major problems. The connection is unstable and has poor speed (about 4 times slower than 2.4GHz). Can someone of you confirm this?
This morning I installed the latest system version and the problem is still there.
I'm getting better speeds (50 MB/s) than with my previous phone (30 MB/s on OnePlus 7). This is of course when near the AP. The overall reception is not that different.
Ok, maybe mine it's faulty. I'll return it. Thanks for your help
