Slow upload speeds with DW1560 #17

Closed aptonline closed 4 years ago

aptonline commented 4 years ago

I seem to be experiencing very slow, and sometimes no upload, speeds using this repo with my new DW1560 card. Initially I put it down to a site issue but after testing with Ethernet on my T460 I pinpointed it as being an issue with the wifi. I also made some local wifi check using open speed test which confirmed the issues, download speeds fine, uploads speeds not. I wasn't sure if the card cables were connected correctly so I changed them over (see photo) but this did not improve things. I've checked the AirportBrcmFixup.kext and its the latest version so not sure what is causing the issue.

Any help grateful.

After obtained the maintenance manual for the T460 it appears the grey wire should go to main (▲ or J1) but switching this does not improve things. So its either a Wi-fi card issue or a config issue.

Seems I had a faulty wi-fi card, seller replaced and tested to be working for both download and upload speeds.

@aptonline ,

I also have DW1560 installed. Mine is T460s, but should be close enough. I'm curious what method you used to determine download/uploads speeds and what is correct for this setup? Also might you know if this card is capable of supporting Apple's unlock with watch feature? I used this guide to install Big Sur, and posted that question in the discussion, but since the guide offers intel and other broadcom card support they may not know. Hoping you have a watch and would know if the card is capable under either Big Sur or Catalina when using OpenCore, and could provide pointers. Thanks in advance.
