Hello
I have a Raspberry Pi 4B serving as router and a NetGear WAX202 as AP (both with OpenWRT)
The RPi is connected to the ISP modem (in bridge mode) via a TP Link UE300 USB dongle (gigabit).
The AP connects to the RPi's RJ45 port.
So..... At the modem, speedtest gets > 300mbit/s results for downloads.
Speedtest-cli at the router gives me 150-200mbit/s downloads. I have a Wireguard client in the router which could explain the difference, but the RPi4B was supposed to handle 300mbit/s for what I've heard.
Sppedtest-cli at the AP gives me no more than ~50mbit/s.
But the worst part is that on occasion it seems like the LAN is under a DDoS attack.
Speedtests at the router are still pretty high, but AP or clients can't get more than 1 or 2 mbit/s.
Before upgrading to 24.10 at the router I had a similar setup, but with OpenVPN, and even though throughput was limited to ~30mbit/s, I never had any such periods of such painful performance. Apart from the openvpn -> wireguard upgrade, nothing has changed in the configurations.
Also I changed the previous cat5e cables with cat6 cables not expecting any results (other than 30cm /~1ft long cables looking much better), but I've got some 60mbit/s reads in the AP since.
iperf3 between router and AP gives me ~600mbit/s (with either cable).
Any ideas? I don't even know where to begin troubleshooting from here.
Anyway, here are my config files:
