The harsh Chinese xiaomi router cuts speed hard and roughly, what should I do?

Question

network hardware

There is a Chinese Xiaomi 4A Gb, and so after half a year of use, he began to cut the speed, from the declared 100mb he distributes 1mb via wifi. Rebooting and changing the channel, returns the speed to 40-50mb, at 5ghz the same story, everything is fine on the cable (without a router).


You constantly need to reboot the router, set the timer to auto reboot, you still need to manually change the channel, 11 neighboring networks. At first I thought maybe my wifi modem is drizzling TPlink 7some N, but the story repeats itself on other devices. Resetting to factory settings does not help.

I think to carry to the SC and complain about the cut in speed. I don't want to change the firmware.
What do you advise to do?

Answer 1

What is the nature of network usage?
In the vast majority of cases, weak routers with a small amount of memory start to fail when this memory runs out, for example, due to torrents.
Reduce the number of connections in the torrent settings.
ps I have a nervous tic on xiaomi, if you look at their hardware in the smartphone segment, then after 1-3 years of use they are classic, most likely not iron glitches (the interlocutor does not hear, problems with charging, the internal memory card slows down, etc.) This suggests that these are planned obsolescence mechanisms that force them to change their hardware after the warranty period expires.
