WLAN speed quite low

[Pickie]

On a WLAN connection under best conditions I only get max <1MB/s, phone and notebook is >>2MB/s
I tried anything of (not too much) what could be found on the net.
LAN seems to be quite fast, but as there is no LAN socket near the box I like to use WLAN.

Rooter shows nearly perfect connection data:
121 / 150 Mbit/s
WLAN-n+b+g
2,4 GHz
40 MHz
 WPA2

Could anyone please confirm how fast downloads on q10 quad normal ly are?
Thank you!

Copying a 1.27GB file from a NAS using Samba to the Q10's internal flash I get ~ 3.2MB/s.

Copying the same file to a 3.5" SATA drive in the Q10 I get ~ 2.5MB/s.

So the constraint isn't the WLAN speed on the Q10. How are you testing / measuring?

[Pickie]

I used Ookla speedtest and NzbGet (which also shows speeds).
After some investigations I am wondering if much more than 1MB/s is possible at all.
According to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11#802.11n
802.11n communication is limited to 10Mbit/s which ich1.2MB/s
So, what connection type were you using?
Is there a way to increase package size or is that set automatically?

802.11n is capable of much faster throughput than 10Mbit/s. It says here (http://www.speedguide.net/faq/what-is-the-actual-real-life-speed-of-wireless-374) 40-50Mbit/s typical, which I think is about right.

For the test above I used a TP-LINK TD-W8968 wi-fi(n) router with all default settings. All default settings on the Q10 also. The distance between router and Q10 was about 3m, through a ceiling.

I think the difference in our results comes from me measuring speed copying across a Samba network, whilst you are using an internet speed measure tool. The internet tool gets it's test data from the internet so brings into play other factors like your broadband speed and the ability of the web browser in the Q10 to process incoming data through the (likely flash) testing web app.

My test is a more pure test of the wifi capability of the Q10! If you're using the Q10 to play high bitrate files from a local network (as most people are) then raw Samba throughout is most important.

I would guess that the slower rate you're getting is due to a bottleneck in the way data is processed in the web browser you use in the Q10. You may get different results across different browsers (Chrome, Dolphin etc). Different results would tend to confirm this as the bottleneck.
