NG R7000 AC1900 Very slow Speed Tests
Noticed something odd with the speeds. I am getting below 10Mbps, both WiFi and wired. Before it was showing 100Mbps instead of 1Gbps, and I got speeds at around 13Mbps on my old previous router. Bu...
- ajo999, Maybe your router MTU needs to be adjusted (common for DSL connections), this is done in the router admin page ‘Advanced’ – ‘Setup’ – ‘WAN Setup’. Here you can enter an MTU value, try a setting such as 1400 or 1492, there’s more information in the router manual page 36 onwards.
Did this help? I have recently been experiencing the same thing. I've bought 3 different 1900 class routers. 1 asus 68u and 2 r7000 nighthawks. Obviously returning 2 of them bc I thought something was wrong with them. I currently have had the 2nd r7000 for 3 days and have spent 1 hour on the phone with charter and 2 hours with netgear and still can't resolve the problem.
I have latest firmware for router and I'm on charter Cable ISP. I've powered down and tested from the modem back to pc. My test are as follows
Pc wired to modem: 64.53 down. 4.56 up
Pc wired to n300 wired to modem: 63.38 down 4.45
Pc wired to r7000 wired to mode.: 1mbps down timeout
This was the same for all 3 of these "smart routers" vs my 7 year old n300. Any suggestions I'd gladly like to hear. Frustrating
