Nighthawk XR700 not getting full gigabit speeds
Hello.
I purchased a nighthawk righter earlier this month and i have not been able to achieve gigabit speeds.
attached screenshots show after multiple test.
I have updated firmware ...
What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
How are you speed testing? wired or wireless?
Try different PC to see any differences?
You might try this, manually download the FW file. Manually send it using IE11, FF or Opera.
Factory reset the router with a wired PC and ALL other devices disconnected from the router. While the Router is being reset. Power OFF the ISP modem for 30 seconds, then turn it back on.
Log into the router and walk thru the setup wizard. See if the auto detect speed gets anything hear 900Mb. If not manully input ISP speed UP and down. Then test with a web browser with speedtest.net or your ISP speed test site.
