Tab Z wifi max connect speed 72Mbps? - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In this day and age of 802.11n I would have thought that a tablet would consistently connect at speeds of 100 - 150 Mbps, even 300 Mbps doesn't seem like an unreasonable expectation if the signal strength is good. However, the fastest I've seen on my Tab Z is 72 Mbps. Is this speed a hardware limitation? Anyone connecting faster?
Answer:
What makes 802.11n different is the specification’s support of multiple radios and antennas that can transmit/receive multiple data streams – called spatial streams. In 802.11n vernacular, these send and receive antenna configurations are noted as 1×1, 1×2, 2×2, or 3×3. These numbers indicate how many transmit and receive antennas and radios are in an 802.11n access point (AP) or client. They determine how many different spatial streams of data can be sent at one time to improve signal reception.
More antennas and streams mean faster speeds, less dead zones, fewer dropped connections, and better coverage. 802.11n 1×1 Wi-Fi adapters don’t take advantage of 802.11n’s multi-stream capabilities so they can only reach a maximum data rate of 72 Mbps. A 1×2 802.11n adapter with two receive streams can double the maximum data rate to 150 Mbps. Take it up to 3×3, the maximum data link can reach 450 Mbps.

Good and how do we go from 72 mbps to 100 mbps or more.
There are solutions for this?

Try using 5Ghz router.

probably your device connects to 2.4Ghz band on your router. Check your settings to connect it in 5Ghz mode.

[Q] Did HTC remove wireless N from us?

I noticed my WiFi signal isn't as strong as my original Epic was. Does this phone support wireless N?
Like explained in this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158629
I tried N on my evo a while back and thought it sucked my battery down compare to G. My N network shows up fine on my 3D although I haven't tested it cause G is plenty fine for the 3D. Plus I get excellent battery life leaving wi-fi on G and don't really need the speed bump going to N. I don't think N will work on 5Ghz though. My ipad2 will see a 5Ghz N network but not my evo. So if your N is on 5Ghz it won't even show up in your list, at least it didn't for me.
I get between 65 and 72 mbps with my 3D on my 4G i was topping off at 54mbps.
That really is too bad... I thought I remembered having read somewhere that the 802.11 chipset in the 3D supported 5Ghz..? If that's the case I would be curious if a different firmware or driver might be able to enable use of the 5Ghz spectrum.

My ipod touch 4th gen won't see a 5Ghz N network either. I ended up switching my N network back to 2.4 since hardly anything even sees a 5Ghz network.
The evo3d does support n but only on a 2.4ghz signal. Your router must be set to that signal in order to use it. It will not see 5ghz ssid. I average 78 to 94 mbps on wifi. Hope this helps.

I could be standing right next to the router and not get better than a 11 mbps rate when the cable service is 25 mbps (and the computer reaches that high). Why would that be? I looked in all the Linksys settings and cant see what could be changed.

Are you on a 2.5ghz n signal???

I believe so. My routers settings page shows mixed mode b, g and n and all of the other settings seem to be set to auto.
I also toggled "best wi-fi performance" as well to see if there was a difference. None.

do you currently have a 802.11b device connected at the same time as the Evo 3D?
802.11n on the 2.4 side, might be talking slower because you have a slower device connected? (maybe an old iPhone, or old laptop or something?)
If that doesn't work, take off mixed mode, and set it only to n, or at least G and N.

Well you might have to invest in a different router. Your router needs to be set at 2.4ghz in order for the 3d to see the ssid and connect. Otherwise it will only see the g. Try updating your routers firmware and see if that might help. Also call the tech support or check the routers website to see if it supports 2.4ghz

Not a bad thing. A netgear 3500 dualbad will only set you back about 170 + warranty of course. But look at it like this do it now and its over. Got mine from bestbuy with a 4yr warranty. With this router you can have multiple networks setup. I have the 5ghz for my 3 desktops and my laptop which support the signal. Then I have the 2.4ghz n just for the 3d. Then I also have a guest network for friends who visit and want to connect which is a,b,g or n. You can configure the networks as you see fit. Its a great investment imo and with the 4yr warranty you covered. Hope this helps.

Yeah the EVO 3D does not support 5ghz N Band.....at least it doesn't detect mine.
Does any phone out support 5 GHz wireless n? I'm not positive but I don't think so. And even if it does what ISP has speeds that even come close to the speeds available in that spectrum? I have 5 GHz n on my computer and yes it performs better on speed tests than my 3D but Time Warner isn't selling 300 Mbps service. My 3D and my OG EVO both cap out at 72 Mbps which I attribute to "good neighbor" mode in 2.4 GHz which basically never let's you use channel bonding that is required for higher speeds. That being said 72 Mbps is more than sufficient for anything I'm doing on my phone especially considering my service is only 15/2 Mbps. On a separate note I did notice the Samsung 10.1 tab does support 5 GHz.

Is the N on a separate chip in the 3vo? I don't understand how N would suck the battery faster than G. I thought N was more efficient than G.

Wireless N-Only problem?

I was wondering if any prime owners tryed to connect on a N-Only wifi?? on the box it says a/b,g,n wireless but when i try to set my wifi to N-Only, i can see the network but theirs no way the prime is connecting to it. I have to switch it back to either Mixed or G/N Mixed, and then im able to connect with a max connectivity with router of 54mbps. This problem was present before and after ICS update, my router is a Asus RT-N12 (tryed with stock firmware, updated stock firmware and with DDWRT). I Would like to know if any of you guys tryed this out I feel i'v been kinda scammed
PS. (I checked out on Q&A for the prime and couldnt find any post related to this if you guys know there is already one, please just give me the link i'll continu posting on the other thread thanks)
I can't connect to my "N" router either. Mine doesn't even show up in my TF.
is it a TF prime or the first one?
N-5ghz is not supported, putting it in 2.4Ghz mode should work (at least, it does on mine... whether there's a difference or not is another thing)
I can connect my prime to my router with N only as long as its on 2.4GHZ and between channels 1-11. I wish I could pick up 12-14 because I live in an apartment complex with crowded wifi. Router is Cisco E2000 with DDWRT firmware...
The link speed showing on the network signal app only maxes at 54 mbps though. I can stream 1080p mp4s from my network drive though so its fast enough for me...
RT-N12 is operating on 2.4ghz and does not support 5ghz. Are you sure you are in "N-Only" mode or are you in "Mixed"??
This has been discussed in great detail in general section. Its known Prime can't connect to 5Ghz. set it to 2.5 or G only. G only seems tl yield best results. also check this article out..might help.
www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-basics/30664-5-ways-to-fix-slow-80211n-speed
Yes, it connects 2.5 N only but the performance is pathetic. Prior to ICS, I got curious changing my 2.5 GHz band to strictly G. Saw an immediate boost in performance + speeds.
Yes so far I am very disappointed. I just got the Prime today and it immediately updated to ICS. Once that was done I started checking out the wifi ability right away, because of all the bad reports all over the internet. Much to my surprise, mine doesn't see my wireless N either. I had the TF101 prior and it worked fine with my router. My Samsung E4GT phone sees it just fine, and what really hurts is my wife's iPad 2 sees it, connects to it and pulls just under 20mbps speeds.
To say this sucks is an understatement. I hate losing to Apple in any way, and here I am with the latest and greatest Android tablet, and being punked by a nearly year old IOS device.
Crap
I have no wifi issues with my N router... Performance can be a little better (speed wise) but no issues connecting at all, my router is cisco

What do you stream over 5ghz network to iPad? 1080p movies? It redundant...just turn down to 2.4 and everyone is happy.
Having a technically higher spec which does not improve on daily usage is redundant.

Exactly, the prime doesn't support the 5Ghz frequency. Only supports 2.5ghz N or whatever. There's only a few tablets that do actually support 5ghz. All it takes is a simple change n it'll work. THE whole argument that it should work on any network is b.s. Especially if you have it set to something not supported. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
I've always used N-Only. I get a decent connection to my Transformer Prime with it too.
Mines is the cheap Belkin N150 router so I doubt it does that 5Ghz range as that seem like a setting for a higher priced N router.

Point 1: Your are in the US, so you are not allowed using anything except 1-11 by FCC regulations.
Point 2: N-Only often turns on channel bonding in soho equipment like yours, so it needs 8 full channels to use it properly. Each channel is 5 MHz apart from the other and a WiFi device uses channels in a/b/g that are 20 MHz wide, in 11n with channel bonding (which is an optional feature for the high data rates) they use channels of 40 MHz. So dividing the 40 Mhz by 5 Mhz makes using of channel 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7. If you would live in Japan, on only country that is allowed to use channel 14. So for US it would be channel 11-4. This explains why channel bonding in the 2.4 GHz band is a band ides unless you are living in a big ranch 500 feet away from the next WiFi router.

Cool device, taken from the specs page of belkin.com:
Security: Wi-Fi Protected Setup, 256-bit WEP (64-128bit), WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2- PSK (AES) with WPS Push Button
Range of up to 1,000 ft.
Link Rate: Up to 150Mbps in 40MHz Channel Mode Bandwidth 20 MHz & 20/40 MHz auto
ISP Protocols Supported Dynamic, Static, PPPoE, PPTP, Telstra Bigpond, L2TP
Compliant Standard IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g
So no 11n support per specs, but the Overview page tells 150 MBits are supported, so it can run 75 Mbits without channel bonding and 150 with.
Try out the WiFi Widget it tells you the data rate to the WiFi router.

I spent the extra money to purchase a dual band router, so I could broadcast N and G as two separate signals. As I understand it, if you broadcast both on a single signal, and you have some older devices that require and connect to the G band, it will automatically cut the speed back, to whatever the slowest device connected is capable of. At least that is the way it was explained to me. So the N was on 5ghz and G was on 2.4ghz. It has always worked with any other wireless N device I have had, until I got this "latest and greatest" tablet. So yes now I have downgraded my wireless network to only 1 band, to accommodate the Prime.

If you have 2.4ghz g network, prime should be able to detect it. Check if your dual band is working properly...
Wireless n is impt only if you stream HD movies. I stream music on g with no problem at all.
I know you feel frustrated, and I know it sucks as prime is supposed to be PRIME. If you intend to stream HD movies to prime you may have to "down grade" to 2.4ghz if not wireless N is kind of overrated or "miss used" as I see no use of having to stream HD to non HD devices. If you are a home theater enthusiastic or business it then wireless n 5mhz is a must.
Hope you can move on to appreciate the quad core of prime than dwelling on this issue.
Cheers!

Honor 7 no Ac Wlan

Did somebody here test the Wlan speed from the device ?
I have a european Honor 7. in the technical features it has AC Wlan. But my fastes connection is 200 mbit sitting 1 meter from my Netgear Nighthawk R8000 ( 1300 mbit)
my fritzbox 7490 the same it connects only to the 40MHz Band ......for me it has only Wlan-N standard .My Galaxy S6 edge shows 850 mbit .
mybe its a softwarebug or Honor is joking us?
Which app are you using to measure? I could test the same on my Asus 66 and share.
Set your wireless router to set only on ac mode and check if you have option in router
The theoretical speed has very little to do with real world speed. I get 90 mbit/s up as well as down speed with file transfer tests. This is about what you can expect from a single tiny antenna with ac in a phone. This is way bettet than I have hade with other ac phones.
I have a Netgear R7000 router and 100/100 fiber.
Skickat från min PLK-L01 via Tapatalk
my Galaxy S6 shows 800 mbit network speed in wlan settings..my Honor max 200 mbit.Honor can only connect to 40 Hz Band but my S6 to 80 Hz
On my tests with Honor 7 I receive next results (to/from FTP server in my local net) :
150Mbit connect, 5 Ghz band, N protocol (my wifi router is N only, no AC)
~13 Mbytes/sec download, ~14.5-15 Mbytes/sec upload .
With AC wifi AP you may receive more speed.
It's very good result for mobile phone, more that really need in a smartphone.

With all respect, it bothers me to the brim when someone questions in this kind of forums (developers, diy, craft, etc...) if some other user needs or doesn't need. It's not that we need it, it's that we can, it's that we want to do it, because it can be done, the device specs tell you you can. That's why we are hobbyists.
I'm getting also only
I'm also getting 200mbps on honor 7 when using android 6.0 but before on android 5.x I got 433 ,so something is wrong with the new update ?

What WIFI speed are you getting ?(slow wifi)

My G5 gets only 60MBs from my router which should provide 90MBs, I tried to factory reset, clean cache, force using ipv4, nothing worked though.
Do you think 60MBs is the limit for the G5 ?
What speed are u getting on yours ?
** Checked the speed with speed test by ookla app**
Idk if it's important: my router supports only wifi 802.11n while the G5 supports 802.11ac
Thx in advance
If you have other devices like laptop pc or tablet then check on those too. I cant help as my wifi from sky (uk) only gives me 12 mps anyway

It's not the phone itself. I get close to 90 MB/s on 2.4 & 5 GHz WiFi at home. LG G5 H830. Some routers don't live up to the speeds they promise, so check with a laptop on wifi.
I agree with jeffsga88. I have a 50MBs at home but my phone gets only 30MBs. My other devices also get the same speed. It might not be because of the phone so maybe you can also check your other handhelds.

But i found a way that boosts the speed in my G5 to 90 which is the maximum using an app that disables Ipv6 ( it seems like since marshmallow android devices have issues with it

Guess that would be dependent on how your router and ISP are handling ipv6 as well. I'm using ipv6 on my g5 and have no issues getting 90 mb/s. Also probably could have something to do with how the specific rom your on is handling ipv6. I'm on RR and don't remember what my speeds were with stock. Anyways, glad you got your higher speeds on your phone finally.
Reviving an old(ish) thread.
I am getting 275mb/down and 175mb/up on my old Galaxy Note 4.
My newer LG G5 is sitting right beside and topping at 85mb/down and 80/up.
There definitely seem to have an issue with the G5's wifi adapter.
If LG G5 is plugged in, i can get 400 Mbps down from my Asus RT-AC3100 on my Optimum 400/40 plan on the 5 Ghz band. Thing is, that happened only once for some reason.
Maximum i usually get is 165 Mbps down on 5 Ghz band, 100 Mbps down on 2.4 Ghz band, on battery.
I have a noticeable difference between using WiFi on 2.4GHz vs using WiFi on 5GHz frequencies. The 2.4GHz download speed tops out between 50-60mbps while the 5 goes as high as my ISP plan allows.
I have three other phones confirm it is not my WiFi router or settings. LG Nexus 5x, Samsung Galaxy S6, and Sony Xperia Z5 all produce similar speeds on both 5 and 2.4 frequencies.
This RS988, and a previous exact model i returned to get this as a replacement don't produce good speeds on 2.4GHz.
I've tried this on Linksys wrt3200acm and Linksys EA8500, and the results agree.
~50-60Mbps download speed on 2.4GHz.
~120-130Mbps (my limit set by ISP) on 5GHz.
This is not cool at all!

slow 5ghz wifi speed

Hi,
I have Xiaomi mi 10 it's very slow at 5ghz wifi, only 10 mbps compared to 2.4 ghz reach round 97 mbps.
I have fiber internet speed 500 mbps. I tried iPhone and other Android devices with 5ghz wifi it reach 240 mbps, but in my device only 10 mbps even with change many settings in my phone and router.
Anyone facing same problem?
you can try to change the channel of the wifi signal.
I have no problem with 5ghz band, 250mbps right now.
