R6300 Wireless Speed Drops, Requires Hard Reset to Restore
Need some help. I have an R6300v1 running latest firmware v1.02.2.78. Noticed wireless speeds on 2.4 and 5.0 below 1 Mbps. I connect to internet at 100Mbps +. I'm using Speedtest.net. Once it...
Please consider this problem closed. The relaod and reset to default was performed and since then there has been no issues.
Thanks agian for quick, professional help.
Thanks.
I read the articles. Both very straight forward. I am concerned that indeed something is not resetting correctly as I have had to do this twice and I know I held reset for more than eight seconds. Each time I lost all my settings.
You have me concerned when you say you can't guarentee end result if I perform 30/30/30. I really just want to ensure the nvram is totally cleared and that I can get Netgear firmware reloaded. If the 30/30/30 would potentially kill router that is a non starter.
On Wednesday morning I will reload firmware as suggested and I will reset. I've been impressed with this router so far. Bought two for clients. Really don't want to replace it and would be concerned that a replacement will have have the same flaw in its workings.
I'll perform and post.
Thank you for your help.
Got side tracked. Okay, manual flashed my router with latest firmware and set my options.
The monitoring begins.
Thanks for help.
Still a little earlyt osay but it is very positive. The network speed has been sustained, wirelessly, since I manual reloaded firmware as per your instructions. If I don't see a reoccurence this weak I will mark this solved.
Interest that a reset alone wouldn't fix.
Thanks
