Slow Wifi Speeds Nighthawk x10
Just upgraded my router from the Asus RT-AC68U which was giving me my rated speed through time warner wired or wireless and now with this X10 i just set up today and installed newest FW as advised to...
Hi HanYol0,
As long as the modem provides the correct speed from your ISP, then the router should be able to work fine.
Thanks, i will try this out tom when i get home and follow up.

So after doing a little rearranging with this router and modem im unable to get above 100mb down with either direct connection or wireless. I tried setting 2.4 t0 387 and channel 11 but no improvement. I've done the following:
Restored factory settings on router
replaced cat 5 cable from router to desktop
tried diff ports on router
Using a long coax cable i just bought to help with the new location. Cable is about 30 feet long..shouldnt be the issue? ohms out fine.
from the modem directly to the computer i get the same low speed. Called up oceanic and they said everything looks fine with no issues showing up. Had them do a remote restart of my connection and same result.
ugh, i thought moving to this new r9000 would be a breeze.
Could this latest FW be the issue?
Your wired speeds are normal, correct? So I don't understand why you spent so much time playing with cables.

First try the factory reset suggested earlier.
If that doesn't help, then try downgrading to the earlier FW, resetting again, and then retesting the speed.
