Hi Bitoy004,
There are two routers on the networks which affects the performance of the 2nd router. You can configure the R8000 as AP or set the frontier to modem only if there is an option.

The router is set to AP mode because if I use that as main router I will get 6mb upload... Using it as AP will make it run 26Mb upload. Main problem is my broadband is 86/83 using the internal speed test of the netgear. And I also run a speed test while hooked up directly to the Frontier router which is 86/84 similar to the netgears internal speed test. Now why am I getting slow upload speed? I believe it is the netgears problem not the frontier, something in the netgear is blocking the upload speed. I've reset it to factory several times even upgraded flash from latest to going back to older firmware. Also reset everytime I update a firmware.
