AC1750 throttling speed
The model is actually R6700V3, but this forum doesn't seem to know that model. Anyway, i cant get speeds over 200. My service is 450. The tech came and ran a speed test directly through the modem, got...
1) Spectrum E31T2V1 Docsys 3.1 eMTA
2) I never get speeds over 200mbps
3) V1.0.4.106_10.0.80
4) I am testing speeds from a PC Win 10
5) I have neither enabled nor set anything other than the network SSID and password. All else is as set from the factory.
I was a database programmer and not a network guru, so I dont really know how to set things up, and therefore leave at factory unless directed otherwise.
Today I am experiencing intermittent internet (this happens a lot) and Spectrum told me that the issue is my router and not their service. I am really getting frustrated at having to fight this.
Start with a factory reset.
Push and hold it for 7-15 seconds while its powered on.
Then during the install, don't change anything not needed for setup.
then hardwire a pc/laptop into the router and speedtest it. See what you get.
that router can hit gigabit speeds wired. but not if its ctf (cut through forwarding) has been disabled.
