Hi all, I recently posted about smart wifi devices and can not use them due to my accomodation using a wifi with a captive portal. Was suggested to use travel router which I then did purchase - the GL.iNet GL-AR300M16-Ext Mini Travel Router which is advertised for up to ‘300Mbps High Performance’.

I set it up correctly, all using the stock settings, however am faced with an issue - the wifi I hosted from my travel router is less than half the speed vs if I connected straight to the base wifi - 25.26 download + 32.36 upload and upload ping is 99ms, vs 68.37 down 68.84 up at 44 upload ping (the rest of the pings are consistent).

Just wondering if theres a step I missed here?
