R7000 Not Getting Gigabit Speed Paired with 716GE ONT
Hello All, So I've had this R7000 for a while and have used it with all my networks up until now. Recently I moved and signed up for CenturyLink fiber and they said I had to use their equipment. Aft...
I'd try the 1.0.9.42 firmware for the R7000.
install that over a hardwired connection, factory reset and do a clean install again.
I'll give it a shot, probably wont be able to update till tomorrow morning now that the family is up and using the internet.
Sorry for the delayed response to the topic. So after flashing to the older firmware and factory resetting I was able to get up to 400mb/s. That same day though my wife had me switch back to the ISP provided router. After switching back everything was running extremly slow and when contacting my ISP I was told I was getting BIP8 errors. After power cycling the ONT everything seems to be fine but I didn't want to risk causing more issues so I boxed up the R7000 and haven't touched it since. If I had a way to guarantee gigabit from the R7000 without causing more possible issues with my ISP I would persue the switch further but I'm not sure how I can do that.
