• You need to buy a Unifi AP for the study, then discover that it doesn't actually go at full speed, like me

  • Sorry bit misleading to say advertised speed - advertised speed is up to 1.5 Gb/s, my understanding is that you could reasonably expect to see half of that, so 750 Mb/s.

    However, people who seem to know what they're on about on the UniFi forums reckon you should be able to get around 800-900Mb/s ish if the stars are all in alignment.

    You may be on to something though because these are my rates:

    Desktop:
    Rx Rate 866 Mbps
    Tx Rate 866 Mbps

    Pixel 6:
    Rx Rate 1.2 Gbps
    Tx Rate 1.2 Gbps

    I'm wondering if the issue is actually my devices - 550Mb/s may be perfectly decent for a Pixel 6 even on WiFi 6 and those desktop rates are with the antenna just over a metre from the AP. But what proportion of Rx/Tx rate should I expect as actual internet speed?
