My Zigbee network also improved after loading the new ap I'm guessing the weak signal or all the competition for the weak AP upstairs was causing the 2.4gz bad to get overloaded.

Jamie Blumberg (jamie_blumberg@hachyderm.io)'s status on Monday, 08-Apr-2024 07:29:50 JST Jamie Blumberg @Rasp I could see a stronger/more robust 5gHz band cleaning up some 2.4 congestion.

Jamie Blumberg (jamie_blumberg@hachyderm.io)'s status on Monday, 08-Apr-2024 07:38:22 JST Jamie Blumberg @Rasp Were all the 5gHz devices barred from accessing the 2.4?If so then maybe it really was just a matter of adding more compute resources.

This house was built in like the 70s so wifi was not a thing

Jamie Blumberg (jamie_blumberg@hachyderm.io)'s status on Monday, 08-Apr-2024 07:48:41 JST Jamie Blumberg @Rasp I’ve lived in places like that. My understanding is that cinder blocks can cause a lot of throughput degradation.
