Removal of internet speed limitation on Wi-Fi in stock firmware - Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone! In custom firmware, even on modified firmware, the internet speed exceeds 7 MB/s, while on stock firmware, it does not exceed 7 MB/s. Are there any patches available to fix the speed issue? Or how can it be fixed manually?

my phone just can use 6.0MBps in stock rom. how i can fix it?

Weird, I have got 200 Mbs on both stock and custom roms. I can't say whether it goes above that or not, as my internet speed is capped to max 200mbps by internet provider. (Not to be confused by MB).

Slow Wi-Fi after WW_2.20.40.97_20150917 update?

I did a search and didn't find anything. I've been updating my ZE551ML and keeping it completely stock. I am on the latest update (WW_2.20.40.97_20150917) and did a Factory Reset for a clean start. I realized after setting up my Wi-Fi again that speeds are extremely slow; <20 Mbps. This is on both the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands, and even if I put it in the Performance Battery mode.
Is anyone else seeing similar and if so, did it start with this update or something earlier?
Is it because of the location? For me, Wi-Fi working normally (at least didn't affect my daily use) except for in my room which is not very far from the router. I get 3 to 4 bars wifi, but it will stop working for sometime and speed is very slow I can't even watch a video without being interrupted. If I walk out of my room, speed is back normal. It's like my room is protected against wifi

It is definitely something up with my ZF2. I have plenty of other devices connected to the same Wi-Fi network that get appropriate speeds. I'm pretty sure it also got great Wi-Fi speeds when I first got it, but this is the first time I re-checked the speeds after all of the various software updates since release, plus a Factory Reset.
FYI, after some additional testing as well as downgrading the firmware, this seems to be some sort of weird interaction between my router/access point and the ZF2.
I'm currently using the T-Mobile CellSpot (basically a ASUS RT-AC68 with T-Mobile custom firmware) in Access Point mode, and what I've been able to determine is that the ZF2 seems to be speed-limited when connected to the "normal" SSIDs (I have separate ones for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz). I have configured guest SSIDs (which have Internet access but not local LAN access) and when connected to those the speeds are as expected.
Really doesn't make much sense to me since it is the same wireless radio on the router. But at least I can reproduce it definitely at this point.
Some time lag )

My ZE551 ML is also facing some issues after the final update WW_2.20.40.97_20150917. Cellular data is not working. All the buttons are working and on but arrows are not displayed and no data transfer and status says Cellular network status-Disconnected.
poor clarity in voice calls to the receiver and slow system respond with even phone book app.
Expecting a kind support ....

Mi 5S horrible Upload speeds

Have tested a few times and the upload speeds over WiFi are horrible. needs ages to even start transmitting and when it does i get 0.01 and sometimes 1 Mbit/s while every other device on the network gets 6 Mbit/s up.
So does anybody here have similar issues or maybe a solution? Download is also bad sometimes but not as bad as upload.
No, anything good with xiaomi.eu ROm
Gesendet von meinem MI 5s Plus mit Tapatalk
My results on Ookla speedtest:
1. mobile: Ping 67, Upload 1,1 MBit, Download 7,6 MBit - o2 Germany 3G (yesterday)
2. Wifi: Ping 24, Download 45,19 MBit, Upload 9,39 MBit - 1+1 Germany
3. mobile tonight: Ping 76, Download 17,29 MBit (1st test) and 28,89 MBit (2nd test), Upload 4,87 MBit - o2 Germany 3G
Here in germany we need in o2/ vodafone mobile web Band 20 for good 4G-connections, missing in Mi5S.
Sometimes the 3G-connections are horrible, sometimes okay.
Xiaomi.eu rom, newest stable version.
I just tested WIFI with the website http://testmy.net, received 82 Mbit/s download und 51 Mbit/s upload rate, this is good.
Latest China Stable ROM.
I tested again and the issue only seems to occur with 2.4 GHz networks, the 5 GHz is fine. Maybe it's a hardware issue after all
2.4 can be very overcrowded and also cause speed issues. Also which ROM are you running? If you aren't using the official China ROM, then there is the possibility of bad drivers.

Haven't changed ROMs or anything really yet but I will probably flash the eu rom based on the feedback in this thread. System info says MIUI Global 8.0.
You have to check exact version. Latest official is 8.0.18.0. If you have an additional 0 in the number, it's a fake shop rom. Also if you have any other language than Chinese and English, it's a fake ROM. Don't forget, even the xiaomi.eu ROM is a custom ROM, with all it's up and down sides.

Have you checked that your Wifi network isn't on the same channel as someone else's nearby? Get Wifi analyzer and check the channels, and if necessary, change your wifi channel from your router's settings.
I have the Xiaomi.eu weekly ROM and I get maximum speeds in both directions that my internet connection allows. About 50/30 Mbps down/up. Haven't tried moving files within my home network, I'll test that once I'm back at my apartment and update here.

Not necessary, WiFi is fine and always has been on any other device.

Yeah, I just checked my version number and it seems I have a custom Vendor ROM with Version 8.0.10.0.0 ...
Will flash the Xiaomi.eu version and test again, thanks for the heads up!

Max. WiFi Speed / WiFi extremely slow MIUI 8

Hi,
first of all i am on MIUI 8 (8.1.5 Global Stable) and my Wifi seems to be really slow. Sometimes i got only 1 MBps with a speedtest although i'm on a 75MBit internet connection behind the wifi router. Most of the time i reach about 8MBit and sometimes 35MBit.
The problem occured on 8.1.3 the first time and i flashed 8.1.5 via TWRP and started from scratch (wiped) but it remains the same. Maybe it's a hardware defect.
Anyway - Could you do a speedtest and tell me which connection you have and which max bandwidth you can achieve with the Mi Max?
Also i considered flashing just a new radio, because TWRP update doesn't flash radio.
So could you tell me what version is the current baseband (radio)? Just check in Phone Information. I would really appreciate to know if there is a newer radio and how to flash it safely (phone is officially unlocked).
Thank you

To begin, I advise you to test your wi-fi on several different devices. If only Mi Max will have a bad rate, then it is necessary to look for the problem and if all devices have the same speed of the Internet, the problem is in the router.
5ghz or 2.4ghz is your router using?
I also has this issue. and i found out that it happens only with specific routers (like i have in my home).
I think that i found a workaround for my home - i use Xiaomi mi adapter as a repeater and connect to it and it works much faster..
Other phones on the same network don't have the problem.

yes correct i am using that mi wifi extender it works great but need to configure it under mi home app
My version is 8.2.5.0 and my WiFi is slow!! It takes time to play even 144p videos in youtube .
Why it is slow ?? And what is the solution ??
I have the same problem. But I have slow DL rates at any wifi router, and also LTE. Changed many ROMs and the problem persist.
i think im having same problem.. im getting 2.8MB/s on a 100Mb network.
Speed in 4g data mode is working fine.. the problem is on wifi only.
The Wi-Fi does seem slower than other phones. I'm on MIUI 10 8.8.9 eu ROM and the maximum I can get connected to an Asus AC68 router is ~150Mb, whereas my Galaxy Note 4 does ~250Mb over the same 5Ghz 400Mb connection.

I have this same problem did you ever find a solution? Did you get a new router, cause that is were am at right now.
Yes, fixed when I did official ROM update via OTA to MIUI10 and now MIUI11. With the same router I got 300Mbps.
I have recently upgraded the router to the Asus AC86U but only for better 5Ghz range for all my devices. The slow issue was definitely the phoned software.

Bypass tethering limit?

I've been trying to see if there is a way to bypass my carrier (telus) tethering limit. I seen a few method mentioned such as pdanet+, dun=0, or changing the phones firmware.
My plan has 20 GB of 4G and unlimited at reduced speed after this is reach. Mobile hotspot is only allowed up to the 20 GB cap.
I have never went over the data limit for the hotspot (20 GB) but I am working from my off grid cabin waiting out this COVID mess.
I've rooted and installed ROM's on a bunch of devices in the past but I haven't done anything like that since probably 2018 so I would imagine a lot has changed since then.
If anyone has tried this or can point me in the right direction for a fix that works currently it would be greatly appreciated.

Very low internet speed over WiFi

Hello.
What could be the reason for the low speed of WiFi internet on the SPH-L710?
The maximum speed through WiFi is from 1 megabits to 8 megabits. The speed is very unstable.
Re-flashing the phone did not solve the problem.
Another phone of the same type (SPH-L710) downloads files at the same time at a speed of 40 megabits.
Both of the same phones have the same firmware.
We don't have CDMA operators, so the phone is used in tablet mode, and the Internet is only via WiFi.
Please help me to solve the problem.
Could there be a problem with the changed parameters of the radio module? Is it possible to reset the parameters of the radio module to factory settings?

You might want to look at the Advanced WiFi settings in the Settings app. There might be something in there not giving full priority to wifi radio. On your Samsung, go to Settings>WiFi>click three dots>Advanced.
There are no such settings there that could affect the speed of WiFi in such a way.
Two identical devices with the same firmware. All WiFi settings are the same in both devices, but one has no speed issues and the other has. Two devices were in use by other people.
Are there any engineering settings that could affect WiFi speed and which won't reset after a Hard Reset?
Or is it a defective device?
Does anyone have the L710VPUCND8 or L710SPRDNJ2 4-file firmware?
