Wow. FR and Directivity.... impressive.
In my router I set the SSID of the 2.4G net differently from the 5G net, so I can better control to which my devices connect (eg SSID Wifi_2.4G vs Wifi_5G or whatever suits you as a descriptor)I may have found a solution for the slow wifi speed causing drop outs on my Kef LS60, by disabling the wifi 2.4G setting / band on my wifi router.
Will check the next days, but everything seems better now. The LS60 connected to the 2.4G wifi of my router, which also sends 5G wifi. By disabling it, the LS60 now selects the much faster 5G connection. You can’t select it in the kef app yourself.
Hadn’t thought of it previously, but that is also a nice way to fix this.I've always used different names. You might check which channels are being used as well. The router should show how many connections are on each channel if you're in an congested area you can change to one that has the fewest.
Do you have access to an alternative streamer just to test to ensure it isn’t something to do with the WiFi? Laptop, WiiM Mini etc. maybe you’ve already verified it?Contrary to my earlier post, the wifi speed again keeps on dropping, also on the 5G connection, till playback has dropouts or hickups.
Sick of it!
I’m gonna use a ethernet cable now, which is RIDICULOUS.
@Kef fix this asap.
There's the problem the iPad is using all the bits!Wifi’s fine, speed in the same place on my ipad over 300 mbit/s.
I said the iPad is in the exact same place reaching these speeds.I can sit out on my patio and get great reception on my tablet , laptop, phone but try to stream WiFi to the TV or streamer or Sonos soundbar, in the living room closer to the router, forget it.
Yes, I saw that. I also saidI said the iPad is in the exact same place reaching these speeds.
I don't know what it is about WiFi and things like TVs, speakers, etc.. but I've always had problems with them. Phones, tablets, laptops in the same room even moved to the same spot in the room no problem
I’ll take that as no you haven’t tried an alternative streaming methodWifi’s fine, speed in the same place on my ipad over 300 mbit/s.
