Hi,

I tried downloading a recording and it was only 30kbps max. what are the things I should look for here? You said in the description you can download 400kbps. Any pointers would help.

Thank you,

Look at the rssi number: -30 is good, -80 is bad Add an antenna to your esp32, or clear any wires away from the built in antenna on the esp32. Better wifi router is good, or move from wifi esp32 to wired computer. Shutting off the recording or streaming during file transfer might help. Or transfering direct from esp32 to computer using host mode where there is no wifi router between the esp32 and the computer. The first point about wifi strength is the most important.
