Slow ethernet, Fast wifi
My wifi is 48.8 Mbps down, 7.59 Mbps up, where as my ethernet is 5.59 down, 5.66 Mpbs up. I have done a factory reset, and no change. Any Ideas?
It was Killer Network Manager, I uninstalled it, reinstalled only the drivers and I am getting 60mbps down 6 mbps up.
Thanks for all the help.
What FW do you have?
FW stands for Firmware or Firewall?
Firmware,
| Hardware Version | R8000 |
| Firmware Version | V1.0.3.36_1.1.25 |
| GUI Language Version | V1.0.3.36_2.1.49.1 |
Firewall is Bitdefender 2017
FW stands for firmware.
I note that you are running the latest FW, so download to your PC again the current FW.
Then routerlogin.net
then advanced settings
then administration
then router update
then "Locate and select the upgrade file on your hard disk."
browse select the FW and done deal
Keep me in the loop!
regards!Unchanged, still around 6mbps down, and 6 up. On my wifi I am getting 56mbps down and 8 up.

I swapped the ethernet to a fast internet switch, and still got the same result from a speedtest. 5mbps down 6 mbps up.
I plugged my modem directly into my computer, same result 6mbps down, 6mbps up.
I am going to try changing ethernet cables.
New ethernet, same result. 6mbps down, 6mbps up. It has to be a configuration on my PC, that is all that is left that can cause this.
