Additionally, there remains concern regarding the safety of radio waves in general. Lower power levels can help reduce potential risks, or alternatively, using higher power with more repeaters. Also, shortening the beacon interval from 10 times per second (102.4 ms) to over one second can decrease the frequency of repeated radio energy transmissions. I still don’t fully grasp its effect. Would you mind clarifying whether this applies to all data transmissions or just access point information? DTIM seems to be set for data, and from my understanding, it should not fall below 1. It appears linked directly to the beacon interval, meaning this adjustment affects the timing of data transmission. So, based on what I understand, the beacon interval does influence data transmission timing.

When radios operate within allowed levels, problems don't arise. Devices with stronger signals are usually placed far from people (like cell towers).

The signal strength diminishes rapidly, requiring caution from those working at the tower. However, standing directly in front of a balcony with a clear line of sight remains safe. It's interesting how being beneath a tower can drastically reduce reception, while being too near a router may cause excessive signal and limited reflections, which are essential for technologies like MIMO to boost bandwidth. Notably, 2.4Ghz performance has improved with WiFi 6, offering better range and speeds. This upgrade necessitates newer routers or access points and PC Wi-Fi cards. Previously, I experienced around 40Mbit with WiFi 4 (802.11n), but switching to WiFi 6 raised speeds to 113/65—though results can vary depending on the room and conditions. Results aren't always clear, so consider testing with an Intel AX210-based card for potential gains at 5Ghz.

My perspective remains unchanged. It's merely a technical aspect.

You’re experiencing a discrepancy between your speed test results and the actual performance shown by the command tool. This could be due to differences in how the tools measure or interpret your connection. The command output might reflect a different interface or network context than your speed test, which may not capture all traffic types accurately.

These figures represent the maximum theoretical performance you can achieve with your connection. In practice, you rarely hit those numbers because Wi-Fi operates in half-duplex mode, limiting simultaneous sending and receiving. Additionally, other signals and devices often interfere with your access point. Even if you could reach full speed, the actual download/upload rate depends on your router’s internet link. Given your high download speeds, it’s likely your home network caps you around 600-750 Mbit/s, your broadband doesn’t provide the full 1Gbit/s, or the server load is the issue.

This speed refers to the WiFi connection rate it uses. Network standards also consume part of that capacity, along with occasional transmission errors. Consequently, only about 50-75% of the available bandwidth is used for actual data transfer. Additionally, your internet plan’s restrictions also play a role.
