Very slow upload speed r6700
Hello, I'm getting very slow upload speed and I have no idea why. It will only get up to 0.6 mb on a speed test. Is there a way to fix this? Also I'm using a TP-Link range extender ethernet port.

What modem/gateway is the router connected to? : I don't know what it is ill figure it out in a minute.
What firmware is on the router? : v1.0.4.98_10.0.71
How are you testing speeds? Directly connected to the router? using wireless? wireless 2.4ghz or 5ghz? : Ive tried all they seem to be the same speed.
What website are you testing on? : Speedtest.net
What speeds do you get directly connected to the modem/gateway? : I havent tried that.
What speeds do you get wired to the router? : 60-70 down. 0.3-0.8 upload.

Try testing directly off the modem/gateway to see if thats the lmiiting factor.
And finding out what modem/gateway it is.

Hi, Sorry for the late response.
The modem is a Charter Spectrum Cable Modem, And the speeds are the same.- plemansFeb 28, 2021Guru - Experienced User
so if you're wired directly into the modem from charter, your speeds on upload are still slow?
If that's the case, it seems to indicate the router isn't the bottleneck in the speeds.
Seems to indicate a charter line or modem issue.
