Nighthawk M1 Slow Download

Boost Sim in a nighthawk m1

Band 28
-86 dbm
I had a play around with the location of my nighthawk and current spot seems to get a decent signal
I think with tweaking its going to outperform nbn wireless :D

Is download being throttled?

  • Wireless performance is all over the place depending on location and then it varies with local conditions still so it's hard to say.

  • Have you tried turning it OFF and then back ON?

    • Have not considered that :D

  • Check temps, anychance it's overheating?

    Think that's been the cause of my slow downs with it.

  • Plug in directly with a network cable and perform a test.
    You will be able to see if interference is occurring.
    Also if it has a 5ghz wifi band try that instead.

    • Did all those

      I also tried an optus sim then ran a few tests
      Results all came back normal

      It seems like boost has capped download but not upload speeds (at my local tower atleast)

  • Do you get the same dbm rating?
    Download a signal app and try with Optus and boost sim cards.
    The Optus tower or antenna may be situated in a better position :(
