Hi centex-rj,
I have read again your initial post and since you mentioned that you have a FVS336G-200EUS, what you have is an FVS336Gv2 not an FVS336Gv3. The LAN-to-WAN Throughput of the FVS336Gv2 is 60 Mbps while the LAN-to-WAN Throughput of the FVS336Gv3 is 350 Mbps. Kindly check these links below as reference:

C: Yes, WAN2 is same slow speed.
D: 4.3.3-5
Block TCP flood, is disabled - no increese. Also bandwith profile og content filtering are disabled as well.
Alsp tryed change it to "Classic routing" istead of "NAT" that gave about 1-2mbit, but
Based from you answers above, you have a scenario called "Double NAT" and this is why you are getting 25-30Mbps of LAN-to-WAN throughput through the FVS336Gv2. Kindly try to make the FVS336Gv2 your main firewall router not the Cisco ASA5505 then observe if you will get at least 60Mbps of LAN-to-WAN throughput through the FVS336Gv2.

Hi centex-rj,
A few questions below:
a. Who is your ISP? Is it a cable or a DSL connection?
b. Is the FVS336G-200EUS connected a modem-router given by your ISP?
c. Does same problem occur if you will use the other WAN port of the FVS336G-200EUS?
d. What is the current firmware version of the FVS336G-200EUS? I know you mentioned that its the newest, I just want to know the exact firmware version of it.
I look forward to your response. Welcome to the community! :smileyhappy:

Okay - but still. 25-30mbit is half the rated speed.

As I have mentioned, you have a scenario called "Double NAT" and this is why you are getting 25-30Mbps of LAN-to-WAN throughput through the FVS336Gv2. Check this link below and read about Double NAT:
http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/992/~/what-is-nat-(network-address-translation)%3F
To isolate the problem, kindly remove the Cisco ASA5505 for the meantime and make the FVS336Gv2 your main firewall router. Observe if you will get at least 60Mbps of LAN-to-WAN throughput through the FVS336Gv2.
You may contact Netgear Support and they could assist you over the phone to setup the FVS336Gv2 and you can also raise your concerns about it: http://support.netgear.com/general/contact/
