  • But what proportion of Rx/Tx rate should I expect as actual internet speed?

    I'd say its almost unpredictable. So many different factors go into it...you'll get whatever the environment in your home allows you to get.

    We've got a Hyperoptic outage at the moment but once its back up (probably later) i'll run some speed tests from a variety of devices and distances from APs.

  • Ta. Although you don't need to now!

    Just worked out why desktop was getting 802.11ac not ax speeds - as a Hackintosh it only supports ac. Restarted it as Windows 10 and I've got ax now. Did a speedtest, got 560mb/s ish which is the fastest I've seen so far.

    Lazily and stupidly I've been using the Google speedtest that comes up if you google broadband speed test.

    Just tried broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk - 756mb/s. Speedtest.net - 814mb/s.

    tl;dr - I'm a silly sausage. But I'm glad my U6 Lite is behaving!

  • tl;dr - I'm a silly sausage.

    Tbh you've actually done me a favour. I have been agonising about upgrading my APs for a while now and your experience reaassures me that I probably wouldn't see much of a boost if I did! It does sound to me like your new APs are acting as should be expected.
