Re: xr300 speeds

What QoS settings are you using currently? Are you doing wired speed tests? Please take a screenshot of the Device Manager table view.

Yes wired laptop speed test.
Have switched qos and anti buff off. Both were on 1000mb and sliders to 100% still no change in speed tests. Will load photo when home

Re: xr300 speeds

Thanks for that. Are ALL devices connected to the XR? If they're not then they will pull bandwidth away from the router.

Re: xr300 speeds

If you disable QoS fully from the Anti-Bufferbloat 3 line option menu do you get better speeds?

No I've played round with those options lots, on/off and sliders.

Re: xr300 speeds

With QoS completely off it usually indicates an issue elsewhere, could you connect your PC to your ISP router, do you get full speeds then? If you do can you swap the cable you're using to connect the PC to the XR and the cable connecting the XR to the ISP router and see if new cables help please.

I can't think of anything it would be so would suggest getting a replacement if you can http://support.netgear.com/
