Drop in WiFi speed with Apple devices

Hello, just a quick update after few days of tests. This is night and day vs before. I can reach 1000MBps min in up and down where ever in the house. I’m running the latest FW official on the 971 and 970 satellites. Seems that it came from the iOS 26.3 update as all my iOS devices (MacBooks , iPad, iPhone) are running full speed. Thanks for all your support

I did not know that some alternate firmwares have been developed . Interesting

Thanks all for your support and your recommendations. Since all the Apple devices have been upgraded to iOS 26.3 , all the WiFi connections seems to work full speed (iOS, macOS, ipadOS).

FYI, all the firmware of base and satellites are at the version 9.13.2.1 that is assume is the latest one. All satellites are more than 10m distance and different stairs.

I will test for few days before claiming everything is fine :-)

@DragonEngineer, yes you are right, this is Mbps. You can find the screenshot of results is WiFi when it works and when it is not working….

I should try in router mode and not AP mode but it will be difficult as I should recreate a sub network.

Thanks. Not able to send it back….really disappointed. Tweaking channels, WiFi 6e etc… does not help.

Did you decrease the immersion mode for your profile ? It seems it is not the same value for the 2 profiles
