I have a Nighthawk RAX50 and have the 1GB speeds through Cox. I'm getting those speeds through the netgear app but not on any of my devices, wired or wireless. I've tried testing on numerous different devices but all have the same result: between 100 and 150. What is causing this? Forgive my lack of knowledge if I left any important info out.
I am getting the correct speeds now. Roughly 700 download on both the app and devices. Finally!
I am not using IPV6.
The issue I'm running into now is experiencing packet loss during online gaming and what I can assume is leading to issues with video chatting or conference calls. Is this something that can be fixed within the router's settings?
It happens when I'm hardwired in. I have not tried connecting directly to the modem. I don't have a ethernet cable that long. It would need to be 150+ feet
If the device with packet loss is hardwired in, there's a wire already running to it. simply disconnect it from the router, run it to the modem, reboot the modem and try it.
If there's a switch there, take it out.
You're trying to eliminate things that could be causing the packet loss to isolate where its coming from. it if happens while directly connected, the router wasn't the issue. Its either the modem or the line. If you add a switch back in and suddenly you have the packet loss again, its the swtiching, etc.
