hi friends lease anybody hael with this dubth
actually i have this configuration in all my house for about 1 year straigth
I have a modem/(wifi disabled) arris [192.162.0.1]
It gives connection to a TP-link Archer C7 router with the stock firmware that is the "main router"[200.81.59.1 DCHP enabled]
And connected by lan I have a Lynksys WR160ND with ddrwt as a WDS-AP [200.81.59.2 DHCP disabled]
When i am in zone A My laptop is conected thrugth 5ghz wif to the Archer c7, but when I move to zone B it automatically connects to the WR160ND the 2ghz wifi through
WDS-ap, manteining the same static Ip, or if the device have a dinamic ip, change it to the same ip "family" (200.81.59.50-51-52 etc)
Now i've conected directly with a lan cable to the "main router archer c7" a raspberry pi4 with openmediavault to make a backups to 2 tb hdd.
While i've been making copies to the hdd (raspberry) i've seen the transfer speed just like this...

Their the sort of speeds you see with a Pi2 or 3 over USB2, Pi4 using USB3 and a NTFS drive you should at least be seeing 30mbps up and about 45mbps to 50 down _________________ | Netgear Nighthawk X4S R7800 | Linksys WRT1900ACS V1 | Huawei Echolife HG612 3B |
If I am reading correctly, it sounds as though you change connections depending on room. That 5.0 vs 2.4 wifi makes a difference, but then you are connecting through a second router, which is having to transmit as well as receive.
What I would do is change one thing at a time.
Test what it is like via wired only. Then add one wifi link, and so on. You could always check the resource usage of teh dd-wrt router, I do not know if your stock firmware has anything
