XR700 Slow SFP+ Download Speed
I've just purchased a Nighthawk XR700 and after some testing I believe there is some kind of issue on Hardware / Firmware preventing the SFP+ to achieve the 10G advertised speeds. It's replacing a AS...
I have a question to the OP...
Just outta curiosity, did you try rebooting either your router or both router and modem after swapping connections from LAN to SFP+, etc? Sometimes the connection isn't fully reset until so, in my experiences.
Yes, sometime you must reset the modem and the router, otherwise the router won't start the setup wizard.
Ok..
I just replaced my old Netgear GS110TTP Switch for a MS510TX tonight. I have setup LAG on the 1GB ports and I have the XR700's SFP+ port connected to it via an Ipolex 10G Transceiver and a CAT 7 cable. I have Gigabit Internet from Comcast. Highest I've seen prior was 948mb DL and 43mb Up. I have an Older USB 3.0 hdd connected to the router but don't expect to see much increase due to the age. We will see.
10G lights up on the XR700 but I will be testing this weekend.
I have a similar problem. I connected my PC via sfp+ and it only gets around 500/600 mbs instead of 960mbs
any solution?
- Are you using QoS at all as that would throttle your connection. Disable QoS completely in the Anti-Bufferbloat options menu and see if you can get any higher.
