Internet limited to 95 Mbps
We just upgraded our internet to 300mbps but connecting directly into the firewall limits the network to 95mbps via speedtest.net
When connected directly to the modem from comcast business, I get the 300mbps. Any clue why this is happening?

Re: Internet limited to 95 Mbps
Hi monstorr,
Welcome to our community! 🙂
It seems that you are having issues with your SRX5308. May you be able to check if it is running on the latest firmware version? You may also reset it to factory default and check if it will now work properly.

Re: Internet limited to 95 Mbps
Thank you for the warm welcome!
I just updated the firmware to the latest yesterday and could not get the full 300mbps. It did help the speeds by about 10mbps. I would rather try the full reset another time if possible. The office is normally full of people at different times of the day. Is there a setting that could throttle speeds somehow?

Re: Internet limited to 95 Mbps
Technically, yes there is a way to throttle the speeds. You may check the QOS settings if it is enabled. When you are trying to do the speed test on the SRX5308, how many devices are connected to it? Have you tried connecting only 1 PC? Please make sure that you are connected directly to the firewall router and not in any panel or switch when doing the speed test.

Re: Internet limited to 95 Mbps
QOS is disbled and I am directly connected to the Firewall. We also have our switch connected but I am testing directly through a hardwire.
