Previously had new Sagemcom 4320 Gateway in office, about 40 ft. from living room TV stand. Our Hopper, web TV- Netflix, Amazon etc., and Chromecast- all were fed via WiFi. Source was 2 antennae D-Link router set up as a wireless AP, about 33 ft. from the stand, and no wall ! We actually did watch HD TV often, tho' with occasional/ frequent buffering. Then the sometimes message to switch to SD.
Download speeds generally were right on or very close to our paid service- 6 mbps. Tiring of the buffering now, I moved the Sagemcom to right on top of the TV stand, and cabled the TV and Dish Hopper. Lo and behold... After going into Settings, and running the Dish broadband test, the download speed struggles to obtain a range in the upper 4 mbps !? Temporarily, the D-Link AP router is in the office, at least 8-10 ft. further away, and with plenty of wall to cut thru (long glancing path down hall). Yet, any WiFi devices still register great signal, and still at or near the max- 6 mbps !!
Something's amiss here, would you say?
