I am having extremely slow internet speeds thNetgearhe netgear router I just purchased.
the wifi and lan speeds are just crawling. I replaced a 4-year-old router that was running much faster via lan and wifi.
Is slow internet speeds a known issue with this Netgear router? Any ideas how I can fix this? I have a job and a family so I don't have a ton of time to tinker around with my LAN.
slow speed issue, a few weeks ago my router just started slowing download speeds down, i'm supposed to be getting over 100mbps and i do when connect directly to the modem but it slows down to like 5-20mbps when i connect my router, i'm connected via cat 5 wire, my Firmware VersionV1.0.1.24_1.0.18, i don't know what the problem is. i have the router for about 16 months now and it have been working great untill a few weeks ago
I encountered the same issue after upgrading to the latest firmware. WIFI connection became very very very slow and unreliable. I downgraded to version V1.0.1.20_1.0.16 and it seems to have helped, although the WIFI is still slow compared to before I upgraded to the latest firmware.
I suggest to downgrade and see how that goes. Make sure to reset your router first before downgrading.
