Background:

Currently I have the following devices on my home network:

  • Router Asus RT-N16 (Latest Firmware Version:3.0.0.4.376_3754)
  • HP MicroServer Proliant Gen 8 (Windows Server 2012 Essentials)
  • Desktop PC (Windows 10 with wireless stick tp-link wdn3200)

The problem:

While the internet speed seems to be good (download on MicroServer is 11MB/s and on the desktop is ~3MB/s), the speed for accessing the MicroServer from desktop PC (wireless) starts from 500kB/s and rapidly drops to 0.

If I try to access the server while on lan, the transfer speed is ~4MB/s, which also seem slow.

If I try to access the server with my tablet I will have 300-700kB/s.

I already tried without any luck:

Thank you!

Edit: I reinstalled windows 10 on my desktop, installed dd-wrt on router and I made a few tests with Lan Speed Test:

When wired:

Write Time = 1.0785168 Seconds
 Write Speed = 370.8797200 Mbps
 Read Time = 0.5220954 Seconds
 Read Speed = 766.1435440 Mbps

When on wireless:

Write Time = 84.8323133 Seconds
 Write Speed = 4.7151840 Mbps
 Read Time = 160.6903622 Seconds
 Read Speed = 2.4892560 Mbps

Try changing wireless channel on the router to avoid interference. You can use "Wifi Analyzer" for Android to do a wireless site survey to look for problems and to find the best channel. 20 wifi networks is bad, maybe too bad. Consider switching to 5.8Ghz (more channels and such) if you can't get the speeds up.
