What happened?
I am using Fenvi AX1800(MT7921AU). It seems like its running slow on OpenWRT router, but runs fast on my PC(Ubuntu-24.04).
I tested the USB port if that was the issue, but it's not. Tested with USB3 SSD, got around 103MBps
Edit: Forgot to mention, The router I am using GL.INet MT1300
Update:
Got access to another router with OpenWRT. It gets the same 200mbps speed. I am assuming this could be a driver issue.
But speeds are not going above 240mbps.
Sorry for the delay. Been busy.
A quick look and the first thing that comes to mind is that the USB port(s) are running in USB2 mode. Recommend you go to the OpenWRT command line and run:
lsusb -t
Things that I noticed:
- I see a bitrate of 1200 Mbps so that is what we are looking for.
- Your sig.noise reading is really low. How close to the AP are you? Being too close can cause problems.
You should check the MT1300 CPU usuage. I don't think MT7621 support HWNAT for USB Device. So most likely CPU bottlenecked.
Hi @morrownr,
Sorry for the delayed response. I did have disconnected this setup.
I have connected it again, Here:
It looks like it's running at 5000M
You are right, I was too close to the router. The one on which I got 600mbps+ was also at same distance. But I have fixed it now, kept them far away from eachother.
Hello @wgetge
Its possible, I will test out soon and get back to you.
