Hello,
I have a D-Link (AC-1900) router with current firmware and a Asus GX-D1241-V4 24-port Gigabit Switch (unmanaged) on a network that is Cat 6 cable. When I connect the router to the switch my internet (wireless and wired) becomes slow, when i disconnect the switch the internet returns to normal speeds. Specifically when the the router (which is connected to a cable modem) is not connected ping tests indicate a 15 -18 ms response time on wireless internet connection. When I connect the router to the switch via a lan cable (cat 6) the ping speed remains constant then suddenly degrades to a ping of 500+ms.
I have also hooked a laptop to the lan ports of the router and check speeds when not connected to the switch. Speeds remain normal (13-18ms).
The switch performs well and while the slow internet is happening I have tested network speeds by moving 40 gig files from place to place and I get very good speeds (150 Megabytes a seconds). So the conflict seems to be between the router and switch!
I have rebooted the switch and router in a number variations and this solves the problem for a couple minutes then the problem returns .... I have changed cables, ports, my bubble gum and nothing seems to work.
I have dealt with support on both products and they have come up blank..
