MR60 slow LAN speeds by over 60%
I'm not sure when this started but I'm on firmware 1.1.6.122 and speed tests on wired LAN is about 63% slower than when I plug directly into my Fios router. When plugged into the MR60 I'm getting app...
What fios router are you connecting it to?
How are you testing speeds? (what device, website, app, etc)
Are you testing wired speeds? Wireless speeds?
- The Fios router is Fios-G1100
Testing Lan internet speeds using pc with GB Lan card. Tested using fast.com and speed.cloudflare.com, wired speed is 330 Mbps on the MR60 and 900 Mbps when plugging the same cable into the Fios router.
Wireless speeds are about 450 Mbps depending on the laptop.For context, the first speed test is direct into the Fios router, the second is the same cable plugged into the MR60 LAN port. It wasn't always slow, I'm assuming a firmware upgrade is causing this.
Make sure on the MR60 that you have access control, traffic monitoring, qos, and parental controls disabled, then reboot it and try.
Is the fios router in router mode or passthrough mode?
