Netgear AC 1750 Model R6400 i limiting my bandwidth
My ISP is giving me 150Mbps (I checked it dirrectly from the modem), and from the router I get maximum 105Mbps.
Is there anything I could do to remove this limitation?
Thank you
In the end it was the cable connecting my PC to the router that was only CAT5, wherefrom the limitation.
I changed it to CAT6, and right now I have 150Mbps.

- If you are wireless. This could be interference from a neighbors wireless. If wired it could be cables or the router. I have a similar problem on a wired R6020. My 80-100Mbps is chopped to 30Mbps. I found tech support unable to help much.
On wireless I have 149Mbps, and on wired I have mostly 105Mbps, so I do not quite get it.
I also changed the cables. When I was on 75Mbps it showed always a little bit over 75Mbps, however right now it is like throttled on 105Mbps.
- If you are in warranty they may talk to you free even beyond 90 days. They didn’t have a prepaired strategy for this issue. After 30 minutes he finally understood that I had a throughput issue. He told me to return the router to the retailer. They wouldn’t refund or exchange at 95 days so I will be calling support again. Good luck.
