How can I increase the Wi-Fi speed to my devices from the SBG7400AC2 unit? Connection speed via ethernet is 277 mbps, when testing using WI-FI 62 mbps. Thank you

  1. what device are you testing with? 
  2. are you testing over 2.4ghz or 5ghz? 2.4ghz is a slow network and sensitive to interference. that’d actually be a decent speed over 2.4ghz. Not so much over 5ghz
  3. how far from the router are you? 
Current setup: Netgear CM3000-->Netgear RBE973S-->2.5gig tp-link switch, Xfinity 1.4gig/240mbps

I guess those are some items I need to keep track of. I am pretty sure I was using the 2.4ghz, just realized there is a 5ghz. and was using my cell phone and was right in front of the mode/router. 

I was contemplating putting the SBG7400AC2 in Bridged Mode and getting a separate WIFI 6 router. Do you think that will help with speed and range?

Thank you
