Sam Knows (or does he?)

Using VM Connect scanning tool with Sam Knows hsows Hub speed 137Mbps and WiFi speed 139 Mbps but green bands on dials below results, assuming they are to same scale, would suggest a wifi speed more like  39Mbps.

Am I misreading the dials?

    We use the genuine "Samknows Realspeed" app, it is free in the app store for iPhone & Android.

    The VM Connect app is not installed on any device in our house,
    we do not tolerate apps that tinker in the background with our Wi-Fi configuration.

    +1 for above, that Connect app is not the best to use for testing speeds etc.  The "genuine" app is the only one to use IMHO, followed by a browser on a wired PC or laptop etc.

  • Maybe it's based on the WiFi network speed?

    So, your device might be connected to the HUB at 866Mbps, however, your connection is only 139Mbps.
