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
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.
regards,
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.
Does your ISP required a PPPoE connection or can it be DHCP?
Try this, downgraded to first version of FW that was released for the R9000. Manually load the FW using a wired PC and web browser. After the uddate, factory rest and setup from scratch. Do not setup Armor, Access Controls or Traffic Meter. Soon as the Setup wizard completes, run a speed test.
You can also try Voxels 3rd party FW for the R9000 as well and see if this changes anything, if not, there maybe an issue at the R9000 and your ISP service. You might try the router at a different location, friend or families place to see if the problem follows...
Good tip, thank you very much. the funny thing, is that, until 8 days ago, everything was fine. I did not change anything from my side.
I just suddenly started to nitice bad performance, and start investigating.
