JNR3000: Wired speed fine, Wireless slow download & fast upload
Hi all, Since a couple of weeks I've noticed my Netgear JNR3000, the second router in the household, puts through extremely low download speed but decent upload speed when connected through WiFi;...
I'm sorry to revamp this half-year old thread, but I've found THE solution to my aforementioned problems.
I was facing the same problems the last couple of weeks, and tried everything again (changing wireless channel and other settings, reset to factory settings, reflashing firmware) but no luck. Eventually, I checked out this FastLane option that's only mentioned in the Basic settings (and not in the Advanced Settings I solely used before).
Apparently, FastLane was causing every wireless connection to have a capped download speed at around 600 kb/s and also meddling with upload speed, even when the pc with trusted IP adress wasn't on(line)! Disabling FastLane eventually did the trick :)
Kind regards,
Alex
