Nighthawk X6 R8000 not getting gigabit speeds
Hi so I recently got a nighthawk router because i was upgrading my internet to gigabit speeds and I wanted to get the best experience for it but i havent been able to get close to 1 gigabite speeds. ...
I was having this same problem. I tried turning off QoS, I turned off Traffic Meter, tried to manually define my bandwidth, and changed to a static IP address. The best I could get from my wired gig internet connecting was about 380 MB. I did a factory reset on the router, and after setting it up I successfully had 950 MB speed. After about an hour though, it reverted back to 380MB. It may have been after I had to power cycle the router when troubleshooting the connection to a Harmony Hub. This should not be this difficult!
