Sperry22 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I have a XR500 that is outputting roughly 50mbps thru a LAN connection. My internet connection is tested at 200mbps but for some reason is being throttle as it goes from the router to the PC. It even says 200 on the DUMAOS connection test. Also on wifi it tests at 200mbps. Any ideas? Note: The only thing ive really tried so far is disabling Qos which didnt help. Thanks Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 9, 2021 Hey, welcome to the forum! If you connect this PC via ethernet to the ISP modem/router what speeds do you get? How did you disable QoS exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperry22 Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 I hadnt done the direct line but I just tried it. So Test you recommened ISP Modem straight to PC - 90/100mbps via Ookla test I disabled Qos by whatever the standard shut off switch was in the Qos Tab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 9, 2021 Okay so you're getting less speeds there as well, it's possible your ethernet cables are limited. On the Device Manager page click the icon in the top left then change to table view and provide a screenshot please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperry22 Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 Heres the table also attached the speed test results. Also after seeing this test it appears the hardware port numbers are not the same as whats being reported. The screenshot is reading port 4 but visually on the hardware it was plugged into port 1. I dont know if that matters or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 9, 2021 The numbers don't matter that's fine but the cable you're using in the LAN port is limited to 100Mbits so you need another capable of 1000Mbits and then you'll get the higher speeds through ethernet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperry22 Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 I asked this question about the cords to the spectrum employee today and he said it made no difference but still gave me a new one. I just had a breakthrough though as ive been workin on it over the last two hours with your help I decided to upgrade to windows 11 and try to update drivers. After doing the upgrades/updates it now works and I think the problem was isolated to "Realtek PCle GbE Family Controller" driver. I truly appreciate the help though man!
