RAX20 - speed LAN port
Hello
My configuration is pretty standard : box provider + Netgear rooter. The only thing is that I disabled the WIFI from the box to use RAX20 as WIFI rooter.
My point is about the download speed when using ethernet.
When I plug my PC to the RAX the dowload speed is capped at about 100 Mb.
When I do the same operation but directly plug on the provider box my download speed reach 500Mb+ (I am on a fiber at 1Gb/s).
So I guess that the port LAN is not really a 10/100/1000 Gb as mentioned.
Am I the only one ? Is there any parameters to change ?

Have you tried replacing the cable between the modem/gateway and the router?
Have you logged into the router and checked its wan connection stats to see what speed its connecting at?
Take a screen snip of post it back here.
