LM1200: Throughput 2
Good morning. I just bought a LM1200, it works as expected for now. However, I have a degradation of the wired connection in download speed and ping. Without the device (router directly connecte...
Can you guys describe which tools are you using to measure your tput ? internally we use iperfv2 and iperfv3 . I just want to understand the scenario and try to replicate here.
Hi,
I have a Netgear Nighthawk router connected to the Netgear LM100 which is connected to the ISP provided modem.
I enter in the Nighthawk App and I just perform the speed test. That's how I get the results mentioned in the first message. I tried these tests several times, removing and introducing the LM1200: the difference and the results are clear.
However, I also have performed normal speed test from other client devices using https://www.speedtest.net. The download speed it's slowed down by 200Mbps.
I checked the firmware version mentioned in the schumaku answer (Netgear support website), it's definitely the last one.
Anyhow, I also tried to download and install the last firmware version (Europe) but an error comes up (probably that's because I am trying to install the same version of the already present firmware). In any case, my LM1200 has the last available firmware installed.

The download speed it's slowed down by 200Mbps.The code called by the App running on the Nighthawk router is an industry standard Speedtest.net client, well known to Netgear. Not a critical test, no massive small UDP packets known to limit an weak Ethernet bridge code involved.
