Slow speed problem on Reliance Jio Fiber wireless router

It may due to the router selecting a bad 2.4 GHz channel.

Try changing the 2.4 GHz WiFi channel to one of 1, 6, or 11 rather than setting it to auto. These should give you a better speed.

No that isn't required because the 5 GHz band gives speed test results of around 90-95 Mbps consistently.

to check if problem is with jio or you are not getting full speed even on local network

All Jio routers have the same fixed channels and the user doesn't have the access to change them.

I also facing same issue from few days. I getting slow speed on speedtests on laptop by lan cable but 94+ mbps speed on mobile.

When my Jio fiber started the 2.4GHz used to give me 60-65Mbps which surprised even the Jio guys but after 3 months to present, its now down to 50-55Mbps. 5GHz give 95-98Mbps. Thru the cat wire I get the same as the 5GHZ

The problems would sustain till the time Jio allows change of Channels and Width. You might be surrounded by too many 2.4ghz routers. I have the same router and for me the speed difference is negligible. If i am near the router, i get the same speeds as 5gHz. The difference between both the modes would be just 1-2 sec delay in ping. Even at the farthest location (5 rooms away), i am able to get 50-65mbps on 2.4ghz

Dont forget even microwave owens also operate on the same frequency & also cause their share of mischief

@Shubham do you have a cordless landline telephone in your house too? Try switching it off and see if it makes any difference?

Even neighbors phones will cause disturbances & these new high gain cordless have a great range😒

The speeds quoted by some members here for the 2.4GHz band are basically the theoretical speeds in the real world it rarely goes above 70Mbps💩 & none of us come anywhere near that speed either.

Called the Jio FIber technician, he said what they are asked to check if speed is proper through a LAN connection, if yes then they are not concerned with wifi because as per their reasoning there are too many factors involved. Unprompted he said it is a weird stupid policy of JIo.

I am baffled what is plaguing the Wifi. The power on the fibre line was adequate around -19.64 and it was stable as well.

Jio gigafiber has recently been installed at my place. What i have noticed is that speeds are around the ~80 mbps mark on the 2.4 ghz band. But this is not the 2.4 ghz band on jio router. I have disabled wifi on jio router and connected an Asus RT AC 66U to it which is handling both 2.4 ghz and 5ghz wifi.

For people getting poor speeds on 2.4 ghz on jio router (ont) the culprit really is interference from multiple devices on the crowded 2.4 ghz band. The router is also responsible because it doesn't allow you to either change the channel or channel width so you are stuck on the channel which might be over crowded.

Please note that even on my asus router on 2.4 ghz i was getting 30 mbps speed. Since the router is flashed with DDWRT i did a site survey to find out which channels are free and switched to them. I changed the channel width also to 40 mhz which also helped.

Now when the asus router shows a 300 mbps link speed on 2.4 ghz band i get 90-95 mbps on jio. Whereas when the link speed drops to say 144 mbps or so the max i get on 2.4 ghz is around 80 mbps.

Needless to mention speeds on the 5 ghz band hover around the 95 mbps mark.

@Shubham try sending a file using your WiFi by using any application and post the results here. We need to see the capability of your wireless network.

@Smh @Nikhil Sharma I installed Air Droid on my phone and installed the desktop client as well. I transferred two to three files of 20-25 MB each. The task manager on the PC showed a maximum of 20 Mbps speed being used by Air Droid.

so that proves it problem is not with jio

@Smh What is the problem then?

@Shubam Did u transfer files between phone & pc or did you download it? If yes then it might just be a local transfer

@socrates I did a file transfer. It said local connection.
