I bridged port 1
Port 1 > Wan connection of the Google device
Lan connection on the google device > Switch for all wired devices in the house
All other devices in house now connecting to the new wifi I set up
Wireless Radio on T3200M remains on
Port 2 of the T3200M > PVR Optix Box
Other TV's successfully connecting wirelessly to system
only problem - I had to reconnect all of my Sonos devices to the new network manually.
I had similar idea, but linksys velop instead of google nest. I had similar success with
Nokia Fiber Modem > T3200 in bridge mode + wifi turned off (I found some smart devices were still getting confused and dropping WiFi connections)
T3200 > Velop Parent Node
Velop > Switch > Wired LAN connections
Velop > Child Nodes > Wireless LAN connections
All Cat 6+ cabling
I'm on the fibre 150 plan
The issue I still have Is both LAN and WLAN speed tests both won't exceed 100 Mbps (~95 is the max I get)? Anyone have any idea on what is limiting it? I've tried testing at both peak and non-peak (ie. middle of the night) and it's always between 75-95 mbps (using fast.com site for testing).
I'm on 150 as well and am getting 170+ on both wired and wireless. Without sounding glib, have you tried rebooting everything? Or a wired connection straight to the fibre modem to test the raw speed?
