Orbi RBR850 QoS Spped Test Fails
Anyone know how to get the speed test working on the RBR850? Every time I try to use it it just hangs. It's less important now that I have gigabit service, but when I had 300 mbps service...
So I have posted the response 5 times and each time it is removed.
Why?
What text are you using?
Yea I placed it in all text cleaned with notepad. Yet still pulled.
So It my only assumption that the data posted is in some way not acceptable despite its only the details of the issue.
So with that it looks to be that Netgear does not wish to solve the issue with the flagship device for home use. Nor have it in the light.
yet Ill try again in a smaller chunk
yep pulled
so
The issue ORBI was placed in service as a router. Speed test Runs. Speed is 500/500 and registers as such +/_ 25meg. With this speed, QoS is not needed per NG own documentation, and is strongly suggest that it be turned off. Does not matter the config state. On or Off Speed test run or Not. Set or not set manually 500/500:
Testing:
All Speed tests are Averaged over 72 hours / 2 vendors. NOT a SINGLE SHOT measurement. TIC stacked used to monitor.Measured internet speed on cable modem side remains 500/500. ONT > CM
Measured speed on the ORBI directly connected to a 1g port on the CM with 10 devices wired to the switch. ONT > CM > R8000 > NG324TP / ORBI
Main speed test server running in 256gig memory space never more than 250megs or half the measured speed after a Speed test with QoS on and manually set.
Main speed test server running in 256gig memory space never more than 100meg with NG Managed QoS.All firmware use Current on One stop back on the train,
Place the Device in AP mode and the issue becomes flapping.ONT > CM > R8000 > NG324 / ORBI
errors ate the rate of 2 per ms of Discarding the BPDU, since it is an invalid BPDU type
With DoS Protections turned on to "protect the switch" it sees this as a DOS attack and DOWN/DOWN the port thus taking the wireless network offline. Only when a trap it placed to UP/UP the port can I return service. The effect of this is FLAPPING.
Now with DoS Protection turned OFF this is still an issue and the messages still produce at the same rate but the FLAPPING is not "controlled"
When connecting the ORBI directly to the R8000 with an R8000 connection the NG324PoE190 the messages continue.
With NO other devices connected, so CM>R8000>NG324?ORBI { AP Mode } FLAPPING
With NO other devices connected, so CM/R8000/NG324/ORBI. AP Mode. FLAPPING
So in each scenario, the device becomes unresponsive for a time frame of 10 to 15 seconds.
With NO other devices connected, so ONT>CM>ORBI { Router Mode } QoS speed issues
With NO other devices connected, so ONT>CM>/ORBI. { AP Mode } this is not a configuration unless I supply a DHCP/DNS server. the R8000 or
