Wired Speeds R7000

We have the R7000 for a while now and I noticed that after upgrading to 750Mbit connection, the router doesn't go higher than 350 capped. Directly into the modem does 750/750 without any problems...

Case850, I would love to test everything, only problem is that our ISP is blocking out the option to bridge the Draytek, they just simply don't allow it, it's greyed out. Probably it's because our television is also running through the same modem.

So I think that means i'm stuck at AP mode, until they either give us more options or another modem.

An older Firmware didn't do the trick for me, but that was two days ago when the whole infastructure was giving headaches, so I could give that a try again soon.

A little update,

I unplugged everything, for an hour. After that I connect the router to the modem, turned modem on, when it was ready, the router.

When the router was ready, I plugged in my pc and had 500mbit.

That was without touching anything, so I decided to set the router to AP mode, and voila, 750Mbit.

So the router is fine, but the other PC still only has 400mbit, even with other cables. So my guess is that the onboard NIC is faulty.

Gonna buy a seperate PCIe card for that pc to see if that terminates the problem.

R7000 is still rocking ;)
