XR1000 SLOW WIFI SPEEDS
Recently just bought a XR1000 gaming router, after setup ive noticed i was getting 85 download which i am paying for 900 down, but getting full 24 up. Ive just set my computer up and hard wired it to...
The router has been elevated and away from electroics since we started this process and also the antennas have been in _l l _ the entire time also.
Could you please click the (i) icon next to the Wi-Fi Network on your iPhone then disable Private Address. After this, test your speeds again and see if you're able to get any better speeds.
- I just ran 4 test and they where all the same
- I'd suggest reupgrading the firmware using the TFTP method, this bypasses the boot process and any issues there then once done do a factory reset for the freshest install possible and retest the speeds: https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP
just did everything as instructed and not any better =/
- Do you have a spare router you can put between the modem and XR to see if it gets the speeds then/if it then gets it in AP mode? That would then really give us a good idea of what the idea is and potential next steps.
- Okay I’ll see what I can do about getting another router. I don’t personally have another one so I’ll have to search around and find one to borrow
