Slow R8000 slow ethernet speeds
My internet service provides 100mbs to the modem, which I have verified. However, I can't get more than 30mbs from the router through ethernet connections. I have tried different cables and computers...
I solved the problem by logging into the advanced router settings and disabling QoS. Now getting 104 mbps down and 13mbps up.
- I've left the office so I don't have the modem info, but it's whatever MIDCO uses. I'll check tomorrow. It's definitely passing 100mbs.
- I just installed the latest firmware. Can provide the exact version tomorrow.
- Yes, speed was upgraded from the old 30mbs to 100mbs a few days ago.
I'll do the factory reset tomorrow and report results.
- The modem is an Arris CM820
- Did a factory reset by pushing button on back of router: No improvement - 30mbs download, 4mb upload. (1/3 of bandwidth coming out of the router.
