hi, i have one 86u bought from taobao china and i cannot get full speed ( 800) most of the time is 200+ ~ 300. Is there any optimization need to be done for unifi?

another thing is whenever i run the speed test, my pc cpu will spike to near 100% and my pc became laggy. is this normal?

Thanks,
lavenzo

i just notice my 86u is running on koolshare-merlin firmware. this is not the merlin firmware from "https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/download" right?

how can flash to "https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/download"?
