RAX120 5Gb port slowed down to 1Gb recently
I had setup the 5Gb port to connect to my 10Gb Synology so that I can transfer a file thru wifi from my computer to the RAX120 and then it's wired from the 5Gb port to the 10Gb port of the Synology. ...
I have tried all the steps from the previous post and it's still capped, I reset the router to factory and connected it straight from 5Gb to 10Gb of Synology. Same issue.
I don't have another 10Gb device I can test the router with.
In the Network settings the Synology NAS sees the router 5Gb port as "5000 Mbps, Full duplex, MTU 1500"
I just plugged a USB3 SSD drive to the RAX120 and tested the speed, it capped at 50MB, is there a setting somewhere that caps the speed per user? That's the only thing I can think of.
I factory resetted it and I'm standing right in front of it.
I've tried several setting changes but I'm still topping 60MB/s
Is there an app or another test I can run?
Might try iPerf.
Also might try this as well:

Can you test the RAX in router mode instead of AP mode for comparison and see if the speed changes on router mode?
Thank you, it's been in router mode for 10 days now, a did factory reset twice but still have the same issue
