I have Fios with coax connection running into the MI424 Router, which is a gigabit wireless n router. I have connected the MI424 to a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900, which I use for my wifi connection (also gigabit). The Nighthawk is setup as a switch, with a static IP and DHCP turned off (the routers are connection LAN to LAN and not LAN to WAN).
All seems to work fine, except that I appear to be bottlenecking at 100 Mbps from the Nighthawk to the Fios router. When I run speed test on a single iPhone connected wirelessly to the Nighthawk the download speed comes through around 83 Mbs. However, when I run speed test on 2 iPhones simultaneously, the results are something like 55 Mbs and 42 Mbs. This suggests to me that the connection from the Nighthawk to the Fios router is running at 10/100 and not 1G. I have Cat 5e cables, which I have tried switching out to no avail. The Fios router indicator lights show that the cable to the Nighthawk is transmitting at 1G.
Any ideas why my wireless appears to be bottlenecking at 10/100?
