Hub 4 WiFi speeds - anyone getting near 1 gig?

Hi,

I was wondering if any Hub 4 users on the Gig1 product have been able to get WiFi speeds above 650-700mb and if so what device(s) support this?

I am able to get a maximum speed of 950mb using Ethernet, so I am confident I am receiving the full 1 gig speed but I am unable to get anything higher than 650-700mb using WiFi on my iPhone 11 and my newish hp G5 laptop WiFi. 

I would love to know if anyone is able to get the full 1 gig over WiFi and how they have managed it! Thanks!

I never get above 866

I am using the Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9260 160MHz but again can only get it to connect to the Hub 4 at 866 Mbps whereas I could connect to my old BT Hub at 1.3Gbps.


This suggests to me that the VM SH4 doesn't support enough spatial streams at 80 MHz channel bandwidth to reach 1300 Mbps link rate, compared to your old BT Hub.

During my short time using the Hub 4's own WiFi I could only connect at 866 MHz.
