Frustrated
Hi Guys
Need some help here. I just setup my Velop on M1 1Gbps plan.
I will leave the complaining elsewhere, but need help on some queries.
1. is anyone able to help me do a speed test using a laptop and lan wire to the main Velop node? Previously my router was a Asus ac3200, that gave me between 750-950 download speeds, and around the same for uploads.
Now it is 350 down, 450 up. I also called up M1, and as they advised direct plug into the huawei ONT/modem lan port 1. That did give me 750 up and 950 down. I am pretty sure then it is not my M1 speed but likely Velop. This speed is verified by my desktop in my room. same, 350-380 down, 450 up.
2. during my call to M1 they advised to turn IPv6 off as they have not implemented it yet. I have done so in the linksys web ui but same, just did speed test, 386up, 417down. I turned it off like a few hours ago.
3. did you guys experience any down time. It seems the app shows all well, but node is down. And vice versa where node shows up, but wifi down. Its totally crazy because you cannot trust your hardware and software??
4. If you are also on M1, can i check if you chose during setup, "before velop, where did your internet comes from: option 1 - modem and router 2. single device modem-router only". Did you choose option 1 or 2?
5. internet backhaul using wire. Another one to tear my hair out. It did not detect automatically on several occasions. 1 still have 1 node where it is wired, but it is connected to another room's node via wifi. I want it using wire man..... and I have no avenue to force it to do so. Any advise here?
I burned whole weekend on this man... frustrated and sad.
