N600 WNDR3400V2
When I hook up my computer (desktop) to my modem (hard wired) I get about 300mbps. When I hook up my computer to my router (hard wired) I only get around 92mbps. When I log into the netgear genie it ...
According to the manual for the WNDR3400v3 all ports, both LAN and WAN are rated at 10/100 Mbps.
From Page 108;
LAN
10BASE-T or 100BASE-Tx, RJ-45
WAN
10BASE-T or 100BASE-Tx, RJ-45
So you can not exceed that rate where a wired connection is needed, including from the modem to the router.
You would need a gigabit router to achieve your full ISP throughput, anything from a WNDR3700 upwards in thge range.
From what I understand, the LAN ports of the router are definitely gigabit capable, and should be flashing green (with activity) if the negotiated rate is gigabit, so check this with the hard wired PC to see if the PC also shows a gigabit connection for that interface.
What I am less sure of is if the WAN port is gigabit, or just fast (10/100)? If you log into the router and go to ‘Advanced’ – ‘Administration’ – ‘Router Status’ – ‘Show Statistics’, what do you see for the WAN port status?
Clearly your PC/Modem are gigabit capable.
I have a brand new gaming computer so it is set up with all the latest gadgits so it is capable of gig internet. Here is the info you requested in a image.
