Netgear R9000 - poor performance wired and wi-fi
Hi there, hope everybody is doing fine ... I bought a NetGear R9000 AD7200 router 6 months ago, and until 10 days ago, everything was awesome. Suddenly, I noticed that I'm not getting more than 9...
Hi guys ... thanks a lot for the attetion. Today a received a technical guy from my carrier, and after some tests, he changed cable connector ... yes, just changed the connector, and everything is perfect again.
I couldn't believe, but that's the fact. The issue was phisical.
Thanks a lot for all the support and feedback here
A couple things I'd try.
1. the 90 mbps seems to indicate that your port speeds dropped from gigabit to 10/100mbps connection. You can check/confirm it with this guide: https://kb.netgear.com/24222/How-do-I-display-Internet-port-statistics-on-my-Nighthawk-router
that'll who you the wan port connections link
If its only 100mbps, then I'd start with replacing the cable. Try a cat 6 or better cable. I know cat 5e is gigabit rated but I've seen sketchy cables cause the drops to 10/100mbps.
Thank you for the feedbacl. I checked the statistics, and looks like the wired connection is 1000M as expected, but I'm getting the same behaviour on Wi-Fi too, it's really strange.

what modem are you connecting to?
Did you try a simple factory reset?
Hi there,
Yes, I did a full reset last sunday, but nothing changed, still getting the same results.
I'm not connected to any modem, I configured a PPoE connecttion on Netgear interface.
