Slow wireless but much faster wired internet speed in dual wan setup. Please help.
-
I have two wan setup. In wired LAN, I get 80Mbps but no matter what I do in wireless I only get 30Mpbs max. Is there any bias I missed during setup? Please help this is bothering my job for 4 months now.

Are you talking about the WAN side or LAN? As for wireless vs wired, wireless often has less bandwidth to begin with. What bandwidth is provided by the 2 connections? Until you know that, you don't know if you have a problem or not. Then there's also the type of wireless connection. Some are full duplex and others half. A half duplex connection will not provide the same bandwidth as full, all else being equal.

30 Mbits is the norm of a lightly congested cheap wifi 2.4ghz typical network. You shouldn't expect more than that, unless you have invested in wifi access points.
It gets much worse with many stations and/or nearby interference. -

What are you using for wireless as the AP, and what is the client? Its quite possible 30mbps is the limit of your wireless connection either at the AP or at the client..

Is he talking about WAN or LAN? He mentions both, but WAN is in the subject. Without knowing more, we can't help him.

Yeah its not clear that is for sure... Without knowing what his wifi hardware is capable of doing there for sure is nothing more to be done.

I'm using Prolink PRN3001 and TP-Link Archer C20 AC750 Wireless Dual Band. One WAN speed is 50Mbps and other is 30Mbps. In pfsense, I've set them up 1:1 Tier passing via LAN as 'superhighway'. In wired connection I get full 80Mbps speed and only 30Mbps in wireless. I do not even want 80Mbps in wireless. I would be happy even if each get at least 20Mbps simultaneously when in use.
I do have a cheap $6 Ethernet card and old computer. Is that it?
