Nighthawk X6 R8000 slow after Firmware update to 1.0.4.46
Long story short, Firmware version 1.0.4.46 reduced throughput on my Netgear Router by half! Rolling back to 1.0.4.28_10.1.54 resolved the issue. Long story. I was experiencing slow internet con...
I've read of several people having issues with the newest firmware on the R8000. Most have been resolved with the downgrade to a version getting rid of armor. Hopefully they're working on a fix.

Oh you wishful thinker. When was the last time Netgear released a firmware that actually fixed things? Not in the last year according to my experiences.

Ugh. I am having the same slow issues. With the lastest firmware version my speed dropped about 700 mbps!!!! Ive done everything. possible, rebooted, reset, went through all settings, turned of disney circle, rolled back to a older firmware version, etc... and nothing works. It's very frustrating because it was working just fine until a few weeks ago ( No its not my ISP). I directly connected my PC from the internet coming into the house and I am getting 850-900 mbps and when I plugged it into my wifi router it drops to 250!!!! I can't even get support to help without paying them! REALLY?? Pay hundreds of dollars for their product and they don't standby it with free support. Problems like this cause people to use other products, which I will be doing if this problem doesn't straighten out.
- Are you kidding me? You're offering my solution back as a solution?? Not sure you have any clue what you are doing or you are just trying to get poster points. Well, unless you are a bot. Either you didn't read more than the first 3 lines or you have no business trying to moderate a solution. Shake my head/facepalm.
