Hi,

I have just bought TP link AC2300 and 800mbps:-

1) For wired, use CAT 6 and only able to get 600-700mbps for download

2) I use Iphone XS max and 5Ghz to connect, but only to get 300mbps.

Understand, wireless can't get full speed, but won't be difference so much.

Please advise

Yes, that is normal. Wired is still the best. The iPhone XS is only 2x2 MIMO, so you can't expect too much of it.

But Wired only able to 600-700mbps? Then I request downgrade to 500 better, no point to pay so high fee but only get 600.

Wired should be able to get full speed, but again that varies as TM will claim it is ‘best effort’.

Yes, that is unstable speed. Some time 600, some time 700, some time 750, some time drop back 650. I keep on complaint, now they only file in report and sent tech ppl to view.

Unstable when doing what? I can get stable speedtests of 830Mbps but it's not very productive.

I close all the apps, don't use handphone. Speed test a lot of times, some times 600, some times 500. some times 700, never get 800

So you doing speedtest? How? Where? What browser? It'll be much easier to diagnose your prob if you're more specific.

I use IE, Chrome, firefox, Edge to test. Test at home

Could be your pc/laptop. Are you using chrome? Try using Firefox browser when doing testing.
