XR500 very slow speeds over ethernet and wireless


Recommended Posts

The images i provided are the results from the tests i ran in order to narrow the issue down to the router.

 

  • Test 1:
    • Description: Speedtest with my pc plugged directly into my modem
    • Result: Close to expected speeds
  • Test 2:
    • Description: Router speedtest after running setup wizard
    • Result: Close to expected speeds
  • Test 3:
    • Description: Speedtest with my pc plugged into my router w/ QOS enabled
    • Result: 10% of expected speed
  • Test 4:
    • Description: Speedtest with my pc plugged into my router w/ QOS disabled
    • Result: 10% of expected speed

 

Any idea on what might be causing such slow speeds?

Hey, welcome to the forum!

How long have you had the router?
What firmware version are you on?
How did you disable QoS exactly? 
If you do a speed test over WiFi do you get similar results?

Thanks for the information, in the Internet Setup page set the MAC address of the router to the MAC address of your previous router please. Sometimes there can be weird speed issues if the ISP hasn't synced with the new router. In the Device Manager table view what do the link speed columns say for the ports and devices that are online?

@Netduma Fraser so under internet setup do i have to have it on Use default address or the other two?.. 

You would select the option 'Use This MAC Address' and then enter the MAC address that your previous router used - don't accept the default MAC that is in the option already.

@Netduma Fraser so i've had it on default this whole time and don't know the mac address to old  router i used, is there any way i can find the old mac address?

There should be a sticker on the underside of your old router that should have the MAC address. It'll look something like this AA-11-22-B4-33-C2
