Asus Router App + RT-AC5300, Real-Time Traffic incorrect

Hi,

Firstly let me say I recently bought the RT-AC5300 and it's a very good product with some nice software. However, it's not without issues 🙂

One of those being the iPhone Asus Router App. On it's homescreen it currently reports the Real-Time Traffic. If I'm not making an oversight here the traffic appears to be wrong. As when I go to view my devices I can clearly see the traffic on individual devices is (for example) at 8.00Mpbs, but the Real-Time Traffic on the home screen reports 900Kbps.

Any idea why this might be happening?

Many Thanks

I've noticed on the iOS app, it auto switches from KBps to MBps automatically. *This can be a little confusing. *I would rather just megabits.

8Mbps = 8,000Kbps, can you confirm if the measurement shown is incorrect, or in different units? Please provide screenshots if possible.

8Mbps = 8000Kbps not 800Kbps.

Maybe the router page is reporting instantaneous/max speed for the individual device(s), but the mobile app is reporting average speed?
