Dlink is the ap, no way configure as a router & working on cable broadband.

You mean, there is no WAN input in Dlink ?

Skip it. I am not able to understand your setup. Sorry.

No wan port on dlink, only lan port. Kindly check above mentioned model for spec.

Can you cross check settings with this video ?


Also, try connecting the AP input directly to a laptop and check the speed.

Already same settings configured. Only one input on Ap, that is connected to airtel router.

lan cable connected through airtel router lan port to dlink ap lan port


I was trying to say that connect this one to laptop instead of Dlink. See how much output does Airtel router gives

In that case, the input is fine ( to the AP ). There is something in the setting that is causing the issue. You might want to revisit that part.

Another part is the wifi signal. Speed is directly proportional to the signal strength.

Is the wifi network same(aka same name) in house with these 2 devices or is it different for airtel & dlink?

This is the alliance broadband connecting using Airtel router then from lan connected to dlink Ap.

I meant are the wifi networks from airtel router & dlink ap have same name or different name(i.e.they show as 2 different wifi networks or not in the list of available networks).
