If I hook up my CM1200 to my router (an Asus RT-AX88U) in Link Aggregation mode, it seems to be consistenly slow down to only around 66-ish% of the full connection speed after somewhere between 24 an...

CM1200 runs IEEE 802.3ad/LACP as well. (I believe this is the most common method on every other router as well)

vkdelta the point is that Netgear does _nowhere_ document that the modems and routers WAN aggregation does use 802.3d LACP. Instead, we get some point KB entries e.g. only for the AX12, which would be applicable to many more Nighthawk AX (RAX) and the basic Nighthawk routers, too. Quite a mess. Unfortunately it's not about what we would like to believe - I would have believed the WAC540 does 802.3ad LACP as it was even in the docs, but discovered the hard way that it's static LAG only (docs are supposed to be fixed in the meantime)..

as far as I know, it shows in the GUI for CM1200 and also in the user manual.
when the customer enables/disabled LAG, it does show it is 802.ad/LACP.
same with RAX80, it shows in the GUI as well. (I did not check the user manual).
