Slow download speeds
Hello, I have a r7000 router for my 1 gbps connection but I can´t get the full speed in wired in my company router I have full speed in speedtest.net I usually have 200 to 500 mbps I tried to downgra...
Yes my company router is in bridge mode and r7000 in router mode.
I believe that the R7000 may not have HW CutThrough handling for 1Gb ISP services. The 1000Mb on the RJ45 ports is a connection rate only of the Connection between the phsyical cable between the modem and router. Data throughput is different. If you did a full factory reset and set up from scratch and didn't enable QoS, Traffic Meter or any access controls and can't see near 900Mb+- non a wired speed test, I presume this router may not support it. I believe the R7800 does.
I have an R7000 (main home router) with Gigabit AT&T Fiber and I get 950+ Mbps down/up via wired connections to our two desktop PC's. The hardware is capable of handling gigabit.
What version of FW are you using?
What ISP modem/ONT are you using?

I just updated to latest Netgear stock firmware last weekend - ver 1.0.9.34. Full speeds, zero packet loss after update so I didn't do a factory reset.
I'm at work right now. I'll have to check on the ISP modem and update later.
Kewl, hoping anything can be helpful for the OP. :smileywink:
I have the last firmware V1.0.9.34_10.2.36 and I have hfc my isp router I think is a rebranded by my isp the company named saecom or sagemcom and the model is a F@ST 3686 AC. With company router I can get full speed. Thanks to all for help.
Modem Combo Units:
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem. Then you can use the NG router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, LAN to LAN and configure AP mode on the NG router.
