Increasing Gigabit speeds
My current setup is the Arcadyan router with 2 boosts setup in the house. One of the boosts is used to wire my gaming Systems which is about 10 feet away from the router. I also have Optik tv. Sinc...
So if I'm understanding this correctly you want to game and use you gig fibre connection?
Run a cat5 or 6 from the modem to the gaming device. Period.
The boost is it hardwired or using a wireless back haul? If a wireless back is used and it's not the best connection, it do matter how close you are. Also Telus firmware sucks. The t3200 has issues with 1gig plans (Telus knows about, the BP is to install a TWH) if you have boost I would also run a cat5e or better to all access points. Hardwired backhaul means :hundred_points: signal when you're 10' from the AP. Also if you're on fibre and don't have Telus optik tv why use their equipment? You don't need it. Go look in 3rd party. Run a cat5e from the ONT (white box the fibre is connected to about 4x6") to the 3rd party gear and boom you're online with vastly superior quality wifi!!?

No not a gamer. Just trying to use video calls on Messenger 25 feet away from hub without freezing frames and dropped audio. Also trying to get signal strong enough to service the three bedrooms on same floor without repeatedly dropping the signal.
First booster is connected via copper and 2nd is wireless.
Would like to use Asus RT-AC68U but have had difficulty hooking it up.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have Optik tvThanks Norm
