RAX43 dropping WAN from 1G/1G to 500Mb/80Mb
Im curious if there has been any resolution to the reduction of available bandwidth on netgear routers. Using an RAX43 AX4200 on a balanced gig fiber connection and as every other thread ive read, it...
I have no idea why your speeds drop after a while. I suspect (but could be wrong) that CTF (HW acceleration) is being disabled due to something. Maybe plemans can chime in
microchip8 is the HW accel something that can be seen or controlled? I've seen it mentioned but dont know how to manage it.
Additional update, BerryComm is working on an issue in the area. We are getting slower than expected and erratic speeds at the fiber converter. Seeing 450/650 consistently, less at times, but none of the readings at the interface seem to match the random but consistent 240/80 that the router will produce from time to time. Its almost like the router is going into a degraded or safe mode which is why I'm curious about your HW acceleration comment. Is it possible the router's assessment is dynamic and responds to packet loss and degrades the available reading based on what it is able to reliably push?

CTF on Broadcom is a black box. No one really knows how it operates (not even the ASUS folks). There's no cheat sheet on how it works and wen it gets enable//disabled. As I said, it's a black blob box. Only Broadcom know how it works.
