Netgear Prosafe Router Model SRXN3205 - Slows down Internet Speeds
Our network speeds are supposed to be getting 200 Mbps download and somewhere around 10-15 upload. We were using Comcast -> NetGear Nighthawk R700 and we were getting the full 200+ download speed on both Wired and Wireless. I now have removed the R7000 and put in a NetGear Prosafe SRXN3205 in order to have a VPN connection to my work and a few other work sites. I am not sure what is the cause, but our speed has dropped down by more than half while using this. Here is what my speedtest shows now with the SRXN3205 in place. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/6081177111 If I take out the SRXN3205 and put the Nighthawk R7000 back, the speeds go back up to 200+ Mbps Ideally I want to have the hardware set up as follows: Comcast -> SRXN3205 -> R7000 (for the Wifi) I have searched all over the NETGEAR Community and have not been able to find any solutions for this. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.Solved6.8KViews0likes6Comments
