I recently switched to CenturyLink 1gbps service and I'm not seeing the full speeds for download. I get 150-250mbps down and 900mpbs upload. I only started getting better upload speeds after I flashed new firmware to my router. A couple things to note:
Asus Router settings:
I'm thinking it is settings specific to my router that are preventing me from getting the full download speed. Any thoughts on what I should change or configure?
Let me know if there is any other information that would be helpful in diagnosing this problem.
Thanks
■ When CL tech came out, using their C2100T (and computer in safe mode...no idea why this was required but the tech insisted it was the only way to see 'actual' speeds) it was showing 950 down and 950 up.
■ I'm using an Asus Gigabit RT-AC68U with Merlin 380.68_2 firmware.
■ I have CAT6 cable running from ONT to the router.
■ I'm testing a wired connection, not wireless.
■ Network status on Ethernet says 1.0 gbps
■ Testing was performed @ speedtest.net and beta.speedtest.net
■ Wireless connection (from phone and laptop) are showing the same download speeds as wired.
Asus Router settings:
■ Enable Jumbo Frame = Enabled
■ NAT Acceleration = Auto
■ Spanning-Tree Protocol = Enable
