How to increase Wi-Fi speed on TP-Link TL-WR1043ND?

Question

linux

There is a TP-Link TL-WR1043ND router , OpenWRT is installed on it. Theoretically, this router can connect via Wi-Fi at a speed of 300 Mbps, but no matter how hard I tried, what settings I didn’t change, what I just didn’t try, in the connection properties on the laptop, the maximum is 130 Mbps. Tell me where to dig?

Answer 1

Try to return to the original firmware and still find n-only in it, I would first try without encryption at all, you never know what it has with iron. It worked for me on dir-655 only after changing the channel width to 20\40 from 20 only. Try the channel itself after all auto, you never know what radio interference there is, which you simply don’t see as Wi-Fi networks.

Answer 2

It's about the laptop. The Wi-Fi adapter supports 802.11n up to 150Mbps. This is still normal, there are n-adapters that have a ceiling of 65 Mbps.

Answer 3

first you need to disable TKIP

Answer 4

At home, exactly the same point, but stitched with dd-wrt. The Lenovo Thinkpad T410 laptop is connected through two walls of a panel house at 180, close to the 230-250 point.
You most likely have a laptop adapter or antenna. But you can try to play around with the settings of the router: specify not automatic, but manual selection of the operation channel (it is better to sort through everything manually and select the best one), try changing the carrier frequency, or specify the operating mode of the bgn or gn point.

Answer 5

To begin with, IMHO, completely cut down the network at 2.4 GHz.
Then check the type of encryption, it should be CCMP (AES without TKIP).
Well, adjusting the frequency, slightly lower than the channel frequency or slightly higher.
Everything worked out for me with the Linksys E3000. :)

Answer 6

I have exactly the same at home, but the firmware is stock. The ASUS F7Z laptop, which has not even been average for a long time, shows 300 Mbps in the connection properties, this speed was previously selected on the router.

Answer 7

You need to pick the *-wrt firmware config.

Well, or return to stock.

Answer 8

It will also be useful to read Wi-Fi: non-obvious nuances (on the example of a home network)

Answer 9

support advised to return to the factory settings by holding RESET for 15 seconds.
Then I set up the Internet, tested the torrent through the wire, without wire, everything was the same, but then after a few reboots I noticed ...
On Wi-Fi:
I distributed all 30-35 Mbps to a laptop with Windows 10;
on my macbook (10.7.5) also (!!!) 30-35, but after a while (F$&%!!) stopped, went down to 10-11;
on another macbook (10.10.4) very little - from 500 kbps to 2 Mbps.
