anyone using the Singtel mesh router but just one of it? do not need mesh function as house is small but anyone knows why the speed just one room away is almost unusable? is there any settings that should be changed from the default?
SingTel Mesh Router is not really meant to be a mesh solution as SingTel does not sell the corresponding SingTel Mesh Extender to individual users.
New subscriber will get either the SingTel Mesh Router (AC1900) or the Mesh Extender (AC2600).
I am actually using the SingTel Mesh Router as an AP myself and it is not too bad in terms of coverage.
You may want to post your floor plan and how you place the SingTel Mesh Router. Concrete walls of old flat are very effective in blocking WiFi signals.
A few suggestions.
1) Try to place the wireless router in the central location of the flat if possible.
2) Try to put the wireless router on the higher place without obstructions
3) DO NOT block the router with things like fish tank or glass walls
4) Try to separate the 2.4GHz and 5GHz band
5) Use the wireless site survey function of the SingTel Mesh Router to manually choose the wireless band to see if that helps. But take note your neighbors may change the wifi bands used so this may not be so effective.
