I've seen countless threads on this here and none have provided an answer. I have an ARIS Surfboard cable modem SB8200 I have the netgear R6080. When I run a speed test the most I can get is 100mbp I have a gig connection. When I remove the router and go from my modem to my PC I get 900+ mbps.
Why is it when I'm using the router and hooked up to the Ethernet port I'm limited to 100mbps? I'm using the cables supplied with the router and the cable modem. Also I only got this dinky router because my norton core is no longer being supported and I was getting 800+mbps on that device.
Yea that router doesn't have the gigabit ports as was stated in the previous post. I read alot of complaints on that model on amazon reviews for that same reason.

Is that because the Amazon description is wrong or people are dumb and make the wrong choice?
Looking at the UK site, I see it promises "Faster Wi-Fi - Now up to 1000 Mbps (300 + 700) ". That has nothing to do with the wired speeds, and it in any case misleading marketing rubbish.

Can you point us to some of these threads?
Every time someone comes here and asks about the R6080 the automatic response is to point out that they bought something that is limited to 100 Mbps on the wired network. They just have to read the documentation for their device.
