XR500 Connection Benchmark Issue
DumaOS Version 2.3.2.130. Connection Benchmark works and displays when scheduled. When clicking "Run Test", circle spins for about 8 seconds. Nothing displayed in any of the three graphs and nothing ...
I wouldn't suggest connecting to the interface using HTTPS as you may encounter errors and issues. The interface is local so it's secure.
Go to the QoS page, click the menu on the Congestion Control panel and change your speeds there.
We use https://speed.measurementlab.net/#/ for the speedtest and it seems quite a lot of people don't get full speeds to it. If you get expected speeds through speedtest.net then the router won't be limiting you
Firefox 108.0.2 (latest version)
Edge and Chrome cannot connect when using HTTPS. They both connect and work when using HTTP.
In trying the other browsers, I discovered that Firefox works when connecting via HTTP but fails when connecting via HTTPS.
Ok. Seen FF have some issues here and there. I mostly use Edge here on my XR routers. Opera GX next then maybe Chrome as last resort.
Can you use HTTPS and still have the Connection Benchmark Test run manually?
Will check today after work.
XR500 with firmware V2.3.2.134 and DumsOS 3.0.202.
In Connection Benchmark, the tooltips for the speed test are set to 100 Mbps & 50 Mbps. How do I change these? I have 1 Gbps service and it appears to rate the Speed Test against 100 Mbps.
My Download appears to top out at around 400 Mbps. Is that a system limit?
Where does the test go to? Speedtest.net shows local locations but DumaOS does not - is it a single location worldwide?
