Hello everyone,
I recently bought this router to replace my trusty Dir-655 (its been dropping connections recently).
Out of the box, the 56U's gui interface was creating problems, lagging me out. I managed to update it, only to receive a bricked unit after a update. I fixed that too, but now I'm encountering issues with QOS- Quality of Service.
Whenever I start the service in the router's setup, my speedtest's are halved. I checked with software downloads as well, and they do not download as fast as with QOS disabled.
Without qos, i get 20 megabits down, with it on, I struggle to manage 11 down. (speedtest.net)
Is this normal? Should I just disable QOS, or is my router a dud?
Thanks in advance !
