RAX120 5Gb port slowed down to 1Gb recently
I had setup the 5Gb port to connect to my 10Gb Synology so that I can transfer a file thru wifi from my computer to the RAX120 and then it's wired from the 5Gb port to the 10Gb port of the Synology. ...
Do you have a different device that you can test with?
Does NOT setting the WAN port in router mode before changing to AP mode change the behavior?
What CAT# lan cable are you using? CAT6A STP is recommended here.
CAT6A from RAX120 to Synology, this happened recently and no changes were made to neither settings nor wiring etc
I would test a different device on this to compare.
Try a full on factory reset, power OFF for 1 min, then back ON. Power OFF NAS as well then back ON. Set up the router from scratch and see if this changes anything.
I have tried all the steps from the previous post and it's still capped, I reset the router to factory and connected it straight from 5Gb to 10Gb of Synology. Same issue.
I don't have another 10Gb device I can test the router with.
In the Network settings the Synology NAS sees the router 5Gb port as "5000 Mbps, Full duplex, MTU 1500"
I just plugged a USB3 SSD drive to the RAX120 and tested the speed, it capped at 50MB, is there a setting somewhere that caps the speed per user? That's the only thing I can think of.
I factory resetted it and I'm standing right in front of it.
