Optimizing a WiFi Network

Zachariah , 4 days ago

Using the UniFi WiFiman app on a gigabit fiber connection from my phone to a U6 Long-Range access point (802.11ax, 40 MHz, crowded suburban area, channel scanning each night with auto-select enabled), I’m getting 321 Mbps down and 402 Mbps up.

For anything for which I care about getting the most speed within my network, I use Ethernet.

Would you share why you only scan at night? I think currently I have autoscan enabled to switch channels every hour, day and night.

Every night is still probably overkill. My neighbors’ APs rarely/never change channels.
