Slow Download Speeds R710 Unleashed

[max_p_eogltxsc8]

Strange issue with R710 on latest unleashed firmware. Upload speeds consistently incredible on both laptop and phone but downloads even from 5 ft away never go over 200 but stay consistent through 3 thick walls. Speedflex on android shows 550 up 550 down to AP. Iperf reflects speedtest.net results. Cable shouldn't be the problem as I have plugged my laptop on it and gotten the gigabit fiber speeds I should be getting. I have factory reset it countless times set everything to auto and tried manually setting the bands and channel width, am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, more troubleshooting..... I know that 200.6.x firmware isn’t great since max speed on my iPad Pro I can get is about 300mbps...      so I decided to flash one of my r710 to standalone firmware which is dated around the same time as 200.6.x...  while having everything set the same channels and 80hz ... I was getting pretty bad downloads..about 150mbps.....so I decided to downgrade to 104.x. Firmware.....and dam it’s night and day I can get 500mbps on downloads ..... so some driver changed from 104.x standard alone firmware to 110.x. Which I believe is the bug that is impacting unleashed..... something odd... I believe this issue has been around for while, but made worse at 200.7.x firmware.

I'm going to need figure out when the speed issues actually started... in which version of unleashed.......it might be between the years 2016-2018.... I don't think larger deployments will care if a single user can not get the max speed per access point so it hasn't been really reported. ... At least I nailed it between standalone firmware 104.x and 110.x firmware.

Also I believe it happens under certain RF conditions..

200.8.10.3.129 is showing in the Upgrade tab of the Unleashed Dashboard. I will check later what will happen if I upgrade, probably only my R320 master and not the R310... but we will see

Hello All - Unleashed 200.8.10.3.129 is our Beta for 200.8 and the official GA is not until early January.
We have new IT folks, and needed to work out how to make the Online upgrade load the new GA image AT THAT TIME!
I understand our IT is trying to set things back to 200.7.10.202.92 (200.7 GA Refresh2).
We do not guarantee the Beta images, sorry.  As mentioned, there will be some AP models NOT SUPPORTED, so read
the new Release Notes, when they are posted please.  Thanks!
