Stefano, the connection speed between a client and the AP will vary, based upon connection conditions. You can configure the AP to have a certain maximum possible connection speed but that does guarantee that this speed will be used.

Hello @svettori,

This article will give you an idea of what speeds to expect although 4x4:4 spacial stream data is not included.

Recommendations:

1 - Create a new radio profile so that you may make changes to the parameters therein

2 - Enable DFS channels

3 - Change channel width to 40Mhz and if you don't have too many APs you can even test with 80MHz channel width

4 - Enable OFDMA in both directions. In default profile this is not enabled.

Test to see if speeds increase.

BR,

Chris

Are you running a 40MHz channel? Based on https://mcsindex.com/ you're probably only using 20MHz, if the client is 2SS
