Effective wifi speed - Moto Z2 Play Questions & Answers

Hello,
as you know Z2 Play support 802.11n protocol and not ac.
I'm wondering what is the maximum speed it can reach, using a 5 Ghz band.
Has anyone done a test or something near with a fast connection like Gigabit Fiber Internet?

Ok guys, I've done some test and those are the results: I've tested today the effective wifi speed at 5 Ghz, and the maximum that our Moto z2 can reach is 110 mbps.
Which is lower than the maximum of the n standard (150 mbps).
WiFi speed of the network is around 240 mbps, tested with a smartphone wifi ac support.
Hope this could help.

i'd tell you if i could connect to a 5ghz router....just bought one of these and wifi is sketchy (drops and won't even connect to 5ghz).
any thoughts?

I have the gig internet at home from EPB here in Chattanooga, TN. Most of my devices will run between 240-350 Mbps on 5g wifi. My Moto z2 Play will run around 110 Mbps on a great day. The best it's ever had is 114 and that was only 1 time. My 4k Firesticks average 250, even on our patio. The signal on the Moto z2 Play is definitely weak.

WiFi a little slow for me

Flashed CM11 last nite and so far it exceeds my expectations except for wifi speeds. I have an ac router and my network speeds are 150mbps down. But on this phone my speed on 2.4ghz tops of at 41mbps (not terrible, a little faster than my old phone) but 5ghz its really struggling. I just tested it at 14 mbps. That's after switching channels on my router before that it came in between 32 and 36. I was expecting it to break 100mbps since my other ac devices consistently clock in at 150 to 165mbps.
Before I start poking around my router settings...anyone else experiencing slower speeds? I didn't try the speed tests on stock fire os so not sure if this issue is restricted to CM or fire phone or if its my network settings. Just looking for others' experiences.

Slow wifi link speed

Hello! I have a LG G3 since a couple of years ago. I was only able to use its 5ghz wifi since May, because previously I had no compatible router. It was working fine, getting between 150 and 180 mbps in speedtests, with a wifi speed link of 433 mbps. Today I switched from my ISP to another. They provided me a new router, called Livebox Next. It has more or less the same wifi specs as the last one I had, it can handle up to 1300mbps in the 5ghz band with wifi AC. However, my phone is not getting anything near that. My wifi link speed is stuck at 86 mbps. I tried changing the channel of the wifi, but it has no effect. In the speedtests, I have like 10mbps of download speed and about 50-60 mbps of upload speed (weird, isn't it?).
I need your help guys. Connecting in the 2.4 ghz band I get between 30-40 mbps. The technician that installed me the router made his own speedtests in his laptop and he got 300mbps in the speedtest in the 5ghz band so I guess its not the routers fault, something is not right but I don't know what.
Regards.
I have a kind of similar problem as you with the G pad 3 8.0. I get 15-30 Mbps download and 10 Mbps download with an AC 2600 router.

slow download speeds over WiFi 5Ghz

Problem: the download speeds over the 5GHz band are typically an order of magnitude slower than the upload speeds.
I noticed this a couple of weeks ago. When I first got FiOS a couple of months ago, both the download speed and upload speeds were around 60.
The Nexus 5x is running Android 7.1.1.
The router (Verizon FiOS G1100) has 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
The FiOS service is 50 Mbps down / 50 Mbps up.
I ran the following tests (all speeds in Mbps):
- Nexus 5x WiFi 5G: up 60, down varies 1-12
- Nexus 5x WiFi 2.4G: up and down 20
- laptop WiFI 5G: up and down 60
- laptop Ethernet connection: up and down around 60
I tried setting the 5G channel manually, and one time I got 60 down, but that didn't last.
So it looks like the issue is with:
- the Nexus (the laptop is OK)
- 5GHz band (2.4 and wired are OK)
- download (upload is OK)
Any ideas?
Anyone else is seeing this?
TIA
This is a common issue on the 5x. Easy answer, turn on bluetooth and test your wifi's speed again.
Unfortunately, turning BT on didn't make any difference.
So it looks like the issue is with:
- the Nexus (the laptop is OK)
- 5GHz band (2.4 and wired are OK)
- download (upload is OK)
Any ideas?

Could be: the phone (some hardware problem or OS gone crazy), or the router (signal coverage or 5Ghz incompatibility with the 5X)...
Here is mine connected to a Kaon AR4010 router from my provider. On my subscription I have max 300Mbps UP, and 150Mbps DOWN. What's your link speed when connected to the 5Ghz WiFi?
The link speed is the same as yours - 866.
I'm thinking the router is not likely at fault, since the laptop's speed is OK, and even on the phone sometimes I get the normal speed.
Also, what could explain (in theory) the difference between up and down speeds?

Fastest WiFi speed?

Hello,
I have just switched fiber provider at my place (FTTH) and I am now getting a whopping 1000 Mbps on my connection via gigabit ethernet.
My ISPs internet "box" luckily comes with 4 gigabit ports but only 2.4 Ghz WiFi (...). Which means that what actually reaches my portable devices is somewhere between 20 to 70 mbps, depending on my location in the house.
So, I ordered a Netgear R6220 to connect to my ISPs box, whose WiFi I will disable, hoping to get the most out of my fiber connection.
I see that this router supports simultenous Dual Band (300 + 867) which should exceed my ISPs downstream bitrate. But I wonder whether the 835 on my P2XL will be able to benefit from the simultaneous Dual Band transmission.
According to the specs it should (https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon-835-mobile-platform):
Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi Standards: 802.11ad, 802.11ac Wave 2, 802.11a/b/g, 802.11n
Wi-Fi Spectral Bands: 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 60 GHz
Peak speed: 867 Mbps
Channel Utilization: 20/40/80 MHz
MIMO Configuration: 2x2 (2-stream)
Peak QAM: 256 QAM
Wi-Fi Features: MU-MIMO, Multi-gigabit Wi-Fi, Dual-band simultaneous (DBS), Integrated baseband

But since the Peak speed is listed as 867 mbps, I'm not sure...
Anyone was ever able to max out the P2XLs WiFi speed?
Thanks!
This is mine today, I have seen higher from my wifi but this is right now.
This is the best speed i got using the 2XL
1Gbit line using a Asus RT-AX88U router.

Wow, this is impressive! I didn't think our Pixels could reach that level of performance!
I guess that the bottleneck for me will still be on the router, then, since I'm not getting anything quite like yours (smaller budget).
I'm getting from Amazon an R6220 and a couple of Tp Links (archer c7 - 1750 and archer c1200), the best one gets to stay! ?
You should be able to reach decent speeds with any of those routers the only reason I bought this one is so i don't need to buy another rooter any time soon.

A70 wifi network speed

Is this max network speed for a70?
This is screenshoot form wifi settings.
On other phones i get 130mbps.
mine says 65. Ultra slow downloads. Heard some people talkin about using the 5 Ghz band of certain equipped routers or n band. It is just so slow downloading from my wlan I figured it must have something greater wrong with it. Like hackers again...who knows.
This is what mine says
On mine is 72mbps network speed and cant get over 49mbps download speeed on speedtest.net
433Mpbs on 802.11AC for me
I get a picture 130 mbps on my oreo device but both pie devices say 65 mBps.
My 1000/100/10 switch connects ethernet to various devices which easily shuttle the expected 80-130 actual MB/s around of large filetypes.
I don't have any sort of 5 Ghz router just the crappy device that the company sent out. And on that the MAC filter keeps getting disabled which increases my paranoia. Till 2 weeks ago I used the same crappy standard gateway/router for 6 years and frankly it was equal or better experience. At least that one started up reasonably fast. And its MAC filter was always on. But that could just indicate that the neighborhood brats had an easy backdoor to that one and didn't have to brute force off the MAC filter.
In my opinion the MAC filter getting disabled (now a few different times it has happened) indicatives a much much larger problem
I have been intending to get my own personal router for a while but there are too many options so I haven't had the scope to choose one yet.
Other phone in network displays 117mbps and is a Pie.
On same network 2.4ghz on s8,s7 i get 130mbps and on a70 72mbps max.
Just tried 5ghz on same network and got 150mbps it is a little faster.
But on 2.4ghz 72mbps is max.
hi guys
i have also same problem . cannot connect more than 72mbps , with 5ghz 150mbps max . something wrong but i could not find what is the problem .
you guys found any solution ?
mine has 72mb on 2.4 and 433mb on 5g...

i think all a70 phones are like that
I just tested and got 158Mbs with a 5Ghz wifi connection, although only around 60Mps on 2.4Ghz.

I'll check mine later and see if I can figure out what's happening
Right next to the router I can see 96mbps in 2.4Ghz
Must be something wrong. I got 433mbps.
Nothing is wrong.
The Snapdragon 675 supports 2x2 chains on WiFi, but the A70 only has a 1x1 antenna so it connects at half the speed.
Link speeds on the A70 are as follows:
2.4 GHz = 72 Mbps
2.4 GHz (with 256 QAM) = 96 Mbps
5 GHz = 433 Mbps
On all devices with 2x2 on WiFi, the speeds above will be doubled on those.
These are in ideal network conditions with great signal strength and low interference. These numbers could reduce if you are far from the router.
This is not abnormal. A lot of mid-range devices only have 1x1 for WiFi.
