Tab S7 wifi slower than my S21+ with iperf - Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer

Hello, running iperf3 on the same router R7800, my s21+ gets 600 Mbps but my Tab S7 is below 170 Mbps, same distance, same router, anyone is getting a difference in wifi iperf3 throughput between devices like me with S7 so much slower?
My Galaxy A7 is 1x1 MIMO and is faster than my tablet, getting mostly 240 Mbps...

Both transmiting wifi below 120mW ... I don't know what is happening here.

That's weird indeed
With my galaxy tab s7 i get qround 650 Mb down ans 500 up, using wifi 5
It's the best percormance in all devices i have
So i think you must have some problem in config

Wi-Fi download speed mystery

Comcast wi-fi internet access : wife's s3, galaxy 8.0 tablet, and toshiba laptop all clocking around 30meg download speeds on speedtest.net, while my s4 will only clock 4-5megs. ALL four will upload same, about 6 meg. Verizon tech referred to Samsung tech who could only recommend a reset which did not help. The recent upgrade to android 4.3 also had no effect. Both s3 and s4 will clock similar 10-25 meg downloads on strong 4g lte connection. Any thoughts?

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 ?

WiFi strength, range, and throughput

Rate this thread to express how you think the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1's Wifi performs. A higher rating indicates that it has excellent range, throughput, and signal strength. Like when you're taking a dump in the bedroom upstairs, do your videos have to buffer or do they come through without interruption?
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
it does'nt have dual band wifi
Going by the way Asus is targeting its phone and the audience appeal. Definitely it will be developer friendly. With the recent drift by the Asian OEM's moving closer to "Openess" i believe they will allow BL unlock and release the kernel sources as well. (Example, Xiaomi's approach have change towards kernel sources. And now you can buy Redmi 5, minus wait time and flash sales). All the best to Asus for bringing in this device, looking forwards for Developer community to accept it and bring in some action.
Can any one confirm that dual band wifi works or not. Because dual band is supported by soc but not listed in spec sheet

I have also checked the website but in flipkart (e-commerce website) shows a,b,g,n is supporyed
As far as I remember, Asus always had bug in their software. Some Zenfone 5 got freeze when unlocked, Fonepad 8 brightness bug not solved. Maybe when custom rom ready, we can have ac Wi-Fi.
Up till now, there is no confirmation about the wifi ac. No one has tested it yet. From the SD636 spec, it stated SD636 should have integrated WCN3980 wifi ac (not like SD625 which can have separate module). Maybe the wifi ac is disabled to make sure it doesn't compete with the premium product?
ZenFone Max Pro doesn't have Wi-Fi AC. Even the Wi-Fi n has issues. After software upgrade it causing me problems after problems!
can any one confirm what is the max link rate achievable on the 2.4ghz band . Does it atleast got 2 x antenna to support higher throughput
As these days 2.4ghz on phone is good if we have 2x or more antenna to support spatial stream.
I have seen upto 173Mbps which is good and not possible if it dont have 2x antenna. As if the phone is dual band they dont host 2x antenna which can boost 867Mbps on ac and 300Mbps on 2.4ghz which is hard to come. What do they do with all the power just game. . Also ditching type c is really bad. I am disliking this model
wifi connection problem
can any one pls confirm, if they are having the same issue with asus zenfone max pro m1 --
google play store(many times), norton live update(havent worked yet) , and chrome (crashes and has to be restarted to access internet), these all are not working over wifi when mobile data is turned off or phone is in airplane mode. and when i try to turn off the wifi to switch it on again, the button when moves from right to left, the motion is jittery and not smooth, it hangs for a fraction of a sec in middle.
also my phone's -- android security patch level shows 1 may 2018 with build number opm1.ww_phone-15.2016.1805.318-20180712 ? is it the latest or asus have released any latest after this?
1 more issue-- under network & internet > mobile network > network settings, there it shows 2 mobile networks, where it shows one as card 1 (which is actually airtel)but other correctly as vodafone IN. the displays shows CARD 1 / VODAFONE IN.
and 1 more thing-- the option of enhanced 4g lte mode is available under 1 sim only.?? are those ****ty things happening with my device only or its universal apocalypse.
in short- accessing internet over wifi has many issues with many apps not detecting the internet.
lol...1 more issue--- in the quick settings drop down menu where it shows signal ,time battery etc there is no option of mute, or volume adjustment or volume profile soft key or am i missing something here. though volume menu is integrated separately and only pops up when u press hardware vol up/down key. what a ****ty device
Many apps doesn't work on wifi only work in mobile data. Don't know why many people has this issue.
Guysss my maximum speed i can get on speed test wifi is 57 mbps . But my home wifi maximum speed is 100 mbps . I can get 100 mbps speed test if i use my samsung s8 plus. Is the limit of asus max pro m1 only around 50 mbps? Can't go much higher or what is the max speed max pro m1 wifi can get ? Please reply guys thnx.
check your link rate. If its less than 86Mbps you cant hit 100 for sure. Its so wiered 6gb is showing less . Not sure on 4gb variant.

Hi, it show 72 mbps on wifi info shown on my device zenfone max pro m1 4gb variant. Weird 2.4 ghz only can reach 57 mbps highest while my Samsung s8 plus 2.4 ghz can reach 100 mbps. Same setup no download during test. Maybe it's software not optimized? Anyone please test your wifi highest speed can get how much. Thnx.
N00b disclaimer: I do not vouch for the authenticity of what I state below
1) Our device supports only 2.4Ghz WiFi, however I believe the hardware may support 5Ghz.
2) Default Wifi bonding module probably throttles the speed and tweaking the WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini will support 40Mhz and speed up to 150Mbps (Magisk module available but not tested)
3) I have checked the WCNSS file (found 4 instances) and seen that there is no channel bonding mode defined for 2.4Ghz but it is defined for 5Ghz as 0. Devs may be better able to understand the implications.
Note: I have a 6GB 601KL variant running stock rooted v318 firmware with TWRP recovery.
It means that our phone is capable of running 5G ? It requires 5ghz of band something like that . I don't know much about it . Maybe Asus has kept it as a surprise for the users inside the hardware
I just hope in the future update our device support faster than 60 mbps wifi speed.

Well Asus has surprised us by keeping the Camera2Api code in its stock firmware which is why it can be enabled with ADB without root. But don't get your hopes up !
Who use more than 30Mb/s in smartphone ?
It's no make difference in daily use.
For me, 5GHz is not relevant.

S9+ Wifi Mobile Hostpot 5GHz problem

Hello,
I have just gotten an S9+, EU version.
Model SM-G965F
Baseband G965FXXU2BGR8
Build Number R16NW.G965FXXU2BRGA
I live in France, the device came from Italy for 30% less than Samsung prices. It had a double blister and "EU Sim only" sticker" and all that. I checked with Samsung support and it is apparently a proper EU version.
My problem:
My land line is very bad so I got myself an unlimited 4G plan to compensate. I set up a mobile hostpot on the phone and share it with my desktop PC and tablet.
I used to have a Xiaomi Mi Mix that got stolen a couple of weeks ago, and it used to work fine as a 5GHz hostpot. My 3 (long story ) PC USB adapters saw it without a problem. With the S9+, only the 2.4 GHz hostpot is seen, the 5 GHz one is not.
I have a Netgear A6210, an Asus AC54 and a no-name Chinese Realtek-based of the 10€ on Amazon kind. The Netgear and AC54 do not see the 5GHz hotspot. The no-name Chinese does, but it is too unstable to be of any use besides detecting networks. My Chinese Teclast tablet see it as well, but I do not care about this device.
What I saw with the no-name adapter is that the S9+ is transmitting on channels 149 + 153. Europe being 36-140 with the US being 36-165 and China 149-165. The rather dumbed-down interface in the S9+ settings only allows one to change the channel for the 2.4 GHz channels, 1-11, nothing for 5 GHz. For some reason this EU model wants to transmit on US channels. Or, more likely, Chinese channels, since these do not overlap with the EU ones like the US ones do, and that is why my two Chinese devices see it.
For the Netgear, in regedit we have the "CountryRegion" parameter set at 4, I blindly tried some other numbers to no avail. In device manager I tried changing the "5GHz country" parameter on the Asus adapter to no avail, even though most of them do include the 149-153 range.
It's weird that an allegedly EU device will transmit 5 GHz on Chines/US channels, and that it is hardcoded. Samsung support says that's life what you gonna do, return it and see if we care.
Is there a way to change these 5 GHz channels or the country it thinks it is in? I'd rather try this, the alternatives being abusing Amazon's return policy to try and get a stable chinese adapter, or just plain returning the phone.
Thank you.
This is my hotspot setup screen. Does anyone have a channel choice drop down for 5 GHz?
Mine is always connected to a 5ghz band however must say that S9 plus dont like it. near the router the signal is always dropping if I go to 1st floor on the house need to go to the 2.4ghz or 1 bar all the time.

The problem is not connecting to a 5GHz signal, but emitting as a hotspot on non-chinese channels at 5GHz. It's like they are hardcoded into the phone.
I have a Galaxy S9 and it used to hotspot to my xbox 360 with no issues. Since updating my S9 I can no longer do this. I'm terrible with technology and need a simple answer. Will my S9 ever be able to connect to a xbox 360 again?

Samsung advertises WiFi 6E on every model of the S23 in every market they sell into. I randomly loaded the specs page for several countries on the Samsung website and they all state WiFi 6E.
It's only WiFi 6E that has a 6Ghz band and if it doesn't have a 6Ghz band, then it's WiFi 6 and not WiFi 6E (WiFi 6 uses the 5Ghz band). So if you truly only have 5Ghz, send it back because the phone you have is not compliant with the published specifications.
In addition, in the second screen shot the interface is different. I doubt that this is a screen shot of a S23. Note the slider option on the left vs the list option on the right.
@tom_shon you say you have something similar. Could you post a screen shot?

The USA version right now is only showing 2.4Ghz/5Ghz option in the Hotspot settings. Returning it for another device will not change it as all the USA versions have the same option.

Then sue them. They've sold you a non-compliant phone. See screen grab directly from the specification page for the US. It clearly states WiFi 6E.

Just because it states on the specs that it can do it doesn't mean it's been approved or even certified by the government or the carriers since Hotspot is a feature that carriers provide on your phone plan.
For those with Galaxy Watch 4's or with the new Galaxy Watch 5 or 5 Pro, some regions have access to blood pressure and others do not. and the temperature reading sensor is still not even working for any regions right now and it's been more than 6 months already.
Samsung did not sell me a non-compliant phone. It will probably be available in a future software update once it has been approved.

Interesting - so the US carriers make customers pay more to enable it? That's outrageous. It works in Europe by default regardless of carrier and for no extra money. After all, it's just using data the customer is paying for already.

Well, if it doesn't do WiFi 6E / 6Ghz then it's not compliant, even if they enable it in a later software update. This is the stuff from which class action lawsuits are made.

some carriers charge for hotspot, some don't.
look at my watch example. just because it's listed on specs doesn't mean it has been approved, so while they can list it on their spec sheet (they are not lying that it can be done) it still needs approval so that it can be available in your region.
In Europe a lawsuit for this would be easier to accomplish. In the USA, you would have to sue government agencies or even the carriers themselves, which is most likely a losing battle.
Blood Pressure check up on Galaxy Watches are not available in the USA because the FDA needs to approve it. Can you sue Samsung because this feature is not on your watch? Yes you can, and it will be thrown out because it's being held by the FDA not Samsung. Can you sue the FDA of course, it will be in the court for how many years and the FDA will state that it's not up to par with current medical blood pressure devices.

Samsung doesn't advertise 6GHz hotspot and WiFi 6E does work otherwise. That's the death of your class action.
Damn, I changed csc to EUX now I have 6Ghz switch but looks like phone still making 2.5Ghz chanel even then I select 6Ghz hotspot and phone display this 6Ghz selection in settings. Bandwidth tests still give me only 50Mbit real speeds not 450 like with my OnePlus 7 pro phone.
Does anyone know how bypass this restriction for EU version phone? I am ready get root for 5Ghz hotspot if needed. 2.4 its just terrible for file transfer!

I doubt that that would have any leg to stand on in court given that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Gen 2 both carry a WiFi 6E Tri-Band Wireless NIC.
Devices have to be certified not only for connecting to a radiation band (2.4, 5, 6, 60), but also certified for emitting radiation on that band. the US has not allowed portable devices to emit on 6GHz for things like WiFi Direct and Mobile Hotspot, so these things you would need to sue the FCC over, which is not happening since they are not permitting certification for it currently, unlike the EU.
