Not getting full bandwidth 300/20 on r7500v2
ISP- Time Warner Cable Speed - 300/20 Router - nighthawk x4 r7500v2 Firmwares I've tried - 10.0.24 - .28 I currently have the Arris DG1670A modem/router in BRIDGED mode and the nighthawk r7500v2...
Turn off Dynamic QoS. You don't need it with such a fast connection. Even Netgear advises to turn it off with Internet speeds of over 300 Mbps. See page 45 in the R7500v2 manual. Leave WMM on.
I was thinking that as well. That it just may be something wrong with the router or hardware in it. I bought this router because I read it have pretty good upnp and gives OPEN NAT on multiple consoles more so call of duty. And it did just that, it worked for that but the speed was and and is the issue. I'm not sure if I should buy this router again or get an entirely different one. Just curious as to what to do, for what I want the router for, QOS and OPEN NAT on multiple consoles.
Try another one if same problem then you'll know.
"when I plug directly into modem I get full speeds even 320mb/s at times as well"
You should get 320 more times than not when going direct
