Am0kGaming 2 Posted August 16, 2020 Hey every thing is working fine just my download speeds are a bit low Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Fraser 10,910 Posted August 16, 2020 Hey, welcome to the forum! This depends on the server that benchmark chooses to do the test to so it can appear lower sometimes. If you do a speedtest.net test what speeds do you get? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Am0kGaming 2 Posted August 16, 2020 through the r2 around 600 Mbit with my ISPs Router or the XR500 900-1000 Mbit On speedtest.net Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Fraser 10,910 Posted August 16, 2020 Is that through ethernet or WiFi? If you disable QoS from the Congestion Control 3 line option menu what do you get? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Am0kGaming 2 Posted August 16, 2020 Ethernet QoS disabled doesn’t change anything Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Fraser 10,910 Posted August 16, 2020 What's your exact physical setup, how do you have the R2 and ISP router connected together, is the ISP router using modem/bridge mode or did you put the R2 in the DMZ? Are ALL devices connected to the R2 because if not they will likely be pulling away bandwidth from the R2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Am0kGaming 2 Posted August 16, 2020 ISP->R2 in DMZ everything else is connected to the R2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Adrian 131 Posted August 17, 2020 Hi @Am0kGaming, thanks for your feedback! Would you mind going to this url, doing a connection test and sharing the results? We want to know if there is a problem with our tool, or instead there is a problem with the servers used for the test. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chand93 23 Posted August 17, 2020 Hi i had this same issue and fixed it by using my isp router between the ONT and the R2. ONT > R2 Download : 400 UP : 117 ONT>ISP HUB>R2 Download : 912 UP : 117 R2 is on Dchp in Wan settings,R2 ip is in the isp hub dmz,benchmark is A+ everytime. It's worth noting around 1ms of ping is added on to overall latency,however with the increased speed and stability it's worth it. 1 Netduma Fraser reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Netduma Fraser 10,910 Posted August 17, 2020 Thanks for clarifying. Weird that it's actually slower direct to the site. I'll let Adrian know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Adrian 131 Posted August 18, 2020 17 hours ago, Am0kGaming said: Thanks for the results. This test was done with the same servers we use for the Connection Benchmark test, and that explains why your speeds on our application were lower than what you expected. There isn't much we can do at the moment with this, as unfortunately this is due to the server's location. This is usually due to this server not being inside your ISP local network, while the tests on "speedtest.net" is inside. Also, the actual speed of the server might explain the difference. As for why your test on the computer is slower than on the router, as @Netduma Fraser mentioned, that's because our test is essentially the same but from the router, so it performs somewhat better!

Netduma Adrian 131 Posted August 18, 2020 @Am0kGaming, What are your QoS settings at the moment? We have tested on different units, and many of our users have experienced speeds way higher of what you're getting, so we suspect at the moment this could be related to QoS. Could you make sure QoS is disabled, or at least anti-bufferbloat is set to never? If this doesn't solve it, could you test after a factory reset? Finally, if neither of that solves the issue, even if it sounds weird, could you try testing with a different ethernet cable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doylebl39 24 Posted August 18, 2020 Apparently I'm having the same problem.. mine should be 1000up /1000 down. I'm no where near that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
