CM1200 speed issues
I just set up a Netgear CM1200 modem and a Netgear RAX 120 Router four days ago. I have Comcast gigabit service (speeds up to a gigabit download, 35Mbs upload) and link aggregation between the two se...

I have the exact same issues with the exact same equipment. Narrowed it down to the RAX120. Going to do a pin hole reset, wait 10 minutes and download new firmware. It's annoying as hell and does not seem to be the cable modem. I went back to the previous firmware without armor as I thought armor was the problem, it's not.

So did some more digging and found a thread thats several months old but it appears the issue is Link aggregation and NetGear does not have a fix yet. :(

Ok, Thanks! Disabled it on both.

AdeptMaven and Huskuldar, to clarify, you are observing the link aggregation performance problem when using the new RAX120 firmware 1.0.1.122 (together with CM1200 1.02.02 on Xfinity 1000Mbps service) - correct?
In addition, I am curious: have you enabled IPv6 on the RAX120?
Thank you.
- AdeptMavenMay 17, 2020GuideAt the time I did not have ipv6 enabled. I have since enabled ipv6 but have disabled link aggregation. Should I try link aggregation with ipv6 enabled? Does that fix the issue?
