Very slow speed on wired and wireless on Extender NETGEAR N600
Hi, I have very slow speed both download and upload (1MB/s) on both wired and wireless conections. I connected my desktop to different LAN ports and my phone and laptops to the 2.4G wireless. Whe...
a couple things you can if it changed after a firmware update.
1. If you didn't update over a hardwired connection, I'd try reinstalling the firmware over a hard wired connection.
2. Any time I have issues after an update, I try to factory reset the device. maybe the firmware changed enough that your settings are causing problems.
3. You always have the option of downgrading back to an older version of the firmware. maybe your specific settings cause a bug with that firmware. The old firmware can be found under your support page---downloads----- +view previous versions. Make sure if you downgrad to do it over the hardwired connection and to reset it afterwards.
Thank you for your reply.
1. I upgarded over a hardwired connection.
2. I tried with the factory reset already and same thing.
3. I downgraded it to the old firmware. I checked the speed again. Same. Reset. Same. And I upgraded again.
I think some of the settings changed because it looks like something limiting the speed.
If you've tried resetting, downgrading firmware, then maybe its time to look at the router?
I remember that this happen before with the same router and somebody gave me a solution to fix it with some change in the settings but I can't find the article anymore. I think is something that just limiting the speed.
