Everyone, this goes against the grain of many of the 'working' settings builds, but living in an environment w 3 distros of unix, Windows, Roku, Chromecast, Androids, and iPhones, this is the ONLY way after countless hours to achieve 300mbps on 5ghz and full connectivity on 2.4ghz.

For some reason this build or the combo of devices DOES NOT LIKE having the 2.4/5 SSID to be the same name. Please copy me and let me know how it works. Note I am not using ANY advanced network features like routing/DLNA/port forwarding/NAT redirection, however I MUST use DNS MASSQ and ignore (of course) ISP WAN DNS. I also use ivpn.net and their amazing anti-tracking and firewall features on Windows, Linux (Kali and Arch), and iOS.

I have a 350mbps down plan and when im on 5ghz I get bbetween 330-360 consistently.

Link above are pictures of my setup.

I will transfer your build to the appropriate forum.

Please see the forum guidelines with helpful tips where to post, where to download etc.

Wow you reach with 20Mhz channel width over 300Mbit throughput ... absolutely incredible

not only that it is technically absolutely impossible but some of your other settings are also nonsense

the Archer A7v5 has a 3x3 radio
https://wikidevi.wi-cat.ru/TP-LINK_Archer_A7_v5.x

With a 3x3 radio, 20Mhz channel width and a modulation of 256-QAM is a maximum data rate of 288Mbit possible

https://mcsindex.com/

But you need a 3x3 client and the maximum PHY rate is not the maximum possible throughput.

The maximum possible throughput is much lower with ~200Mbit.

Since most good clients have only 2 antennas, the throughput should be even lower.

And you don't need to enter values like 499 or 433 for ACK Timing - because they are not accepted by the radio firmware anyway.

So somehow the shown settings do not fit to your statement - it is technically impossible with such settings and the hardware to achieve a data throughput of over 300MBit.

Although some settings are debatable have a look at:
