A possible solution to speed issues (N71 vs N41)
Some background: My Arcadyan KVD21 gateway became super slow about 3 weeks ago. The config app said that I had good SN, etc, but I was always connecting a slow N71 tower that’s a mile or so from my h...
I wish it would connect to the better signal. My KVD21 will connect to N41, which has a somewhat good download, but latency of 80-100 ms which is choppy. The N41 band can only get an SINR of about 5. Now if I get it turned just right I'll get N71 after a while. SINR of 15, 30 ms ping, 150 down 60 up. Everything works great.
I just wish there a few more selections you could make with your gateway. In my area, hands down, I prefer N71 over N41, but it gravitates to the weaker signal. I get N71 and go as long as I can without a reboot.
