Router limitting my speed??
High and good day to you guys. I'm having problems with my router I just bought it yesterday and it was actually working perfectly fine I have spectrum for my provider and I have 400Mbps plan ...
How are you connecting to the router? Via wif or via ethernet?
What device are you testing on? (model and wireless chipset)
What firmware are you on?
What modem is it connected to?
speedtest over the ethernet connection.
Also, make sure you're not testing over the 2.4ghz band. its much much slower than 5ghz.
Make sure qos, parental control, traffic monitoring, and access control are disabled. Then reboot the router.
I personally had to factory reset my router (R6700v3) and make sure I never turned those feature back on to get my 300mb plan.
