Hi all,
I've had, since the start, issues with slow wifi. Copying a file from my MacBook Pro via smb share to my Raspberry Pi takes approximately 20-25 minutes for 1 GB. (around 600 KB/sec). On my MacBook Pro I can easily get speeds of 10 MB/sec for non-Raspberry Pi wifi transfers.
I've noticed that I have a high Tx Excessive Retries count (1171) and Invalid Misc (451). The numbers increase quickly whenever I try to transmit a file. I have little experience with Linux and wifi but I was wondering whether this might be a symptom of my issue?
To add, I'm on a Raspberry Pi 2 model b running OSMC/Kodi.
