FVS336G with SBG6580 limited download speed
I am running an SBG6580 in bridged mode through my FVS336G. If I connect my computer directly to the SBG6580 I'm getting 50mbps down and 5mbps up. But when I connect my FVS336G my download speed is limited to 30mbps.
I have done the all the troubleshooting I can with my ISP, Time Warner, and it's apparent that the the bottleneck is the FVS336G. My firmware is update to the new version, v3.0.7-24. Is there a setting I can change to fix this issue or is my firewall unable to achieve speeds above 30mbps?

- Firewall overhead can reduce the throughput even this model can handle 60 Mbps on WAN
- Is there anything I can do in the firewall settings to change this? Or would I have to bypass the firewall somehow?
- Did you creat any rules?
- No I didn't. I can send you my .cfg file if needed.
- I'll do a hard reset and check my speeds again.
- I did a factory reset and I'm still getting the same 30 down, 5 up speeds. Tried again through the SBG6580 and my speeds were 50 down and 5 up.
- WAN of the FVS336 has public IP... just double checking....
- Not sure I understand. How would I check that?

WAN status..
make user that you did bridge mode on Moto device and public IP is showing - I RMA'd the unit and the new one solved all of my problems. Thank you for the help.
