Half speeds on r2

That's a lot better then, what do other devices get?

I've noticed you're on an old version, it would be beneficial to update to the latest, factory reset, disable QoS and retest https://forum.netduma.com/topic/38047-new-r2-firmware-30394/

 

Thanks. Ill try that. ATM wired devices are getting 85mb max. can get 200mb on wifi somehow though.

Don't worry about Benchmark at the moment as speedtest.net is giving better results - what did you get on that and did other devices improve?

So is it not accurate for ping either? What should I use to test that? I seem to be getting the right speeds on my computer both with QOS on and off. Tried it set to 50% for both and I'm getting half the speeds I should. Other devices are stuck at the same as they were before. 

Everything is connected via cat 7 cable but I feel like that could be the only issue for the slow speeds? Is there a particular brand or type of wire I should buy and try that instead? Possible interference or something is effecting them if the computer right next to the router is getting the right speeds? 

[Netduma Fraser]

It uses separate servers for the pings (Google) so they will be accurate. 

No specific cable is necessary, what are the devices in question, are you able to adjust their Network Card settings like the PC for example? 

[SimonYoung]

Right I've brough the devices down to use the same cables as the co.puter and again I'm getting a max of 85mb still. It's gaming consoles really I'm bothered about. 

[Netduma Fraser]

85mb is very specific have you disabled Share Excess on Bandwidth Allocation or anything like that? Console speed tests can be inaccurate so would suggest using the web browser on those to test instead. Have you used manual connection settings on the devices?

Yup I've tried speedtest.net on console browser and get the same results. 

Nope I've tried with QoS disabled completely as well as can never get above 80s. 

Wifi speeds I can get around 200mb however. 

[Netduma Fraser]

There are no specific ethernet vs WiFi settings so would indicate it's either a router port issue or on the device side. The PC that can get good speeds, do a speed test when connected to each port and see if it's limited

Right I've noticed my QOS keep changing on their own? I and it set at 15% on both and when I login to to duma it's back at 100%. 

I did the autodetect tests again and had it set at their recommended 30% with my console prioritised at 95% for upload and download now the speeds are set at 50% distributed across all devices equally. 

I ran a cheap tp link router for a few days and didn't get any of the packet loss and lag when gaming. ATM it's just unplayable on the R2 speedup lag non stop.

Apply your settings, wait about 10 seconds and then refresh the page, are the settings still persistent or do they go back to their previous config?

What game are you playing that you're having issues with?  Are you playing on console or on PC?

Console. I tried my laptop wired to ight and that's only receiving 80mb too. Or should I say was. No I can't get any internet connection at all through WiFi or wired. Lights on the r2 are just flashing constantly.

Are you able to get to the R2 interface by going to 192.168.77.1 in your web browser? If not, unplug the R2 from power and leave it for 10 minutes. Then reconnect it and see if you can get access again.

Thanks I managed to get it sorted. For whatever reason use upstream DNS had came unticked. 

After some investigation I think I've managed to find the source of the issue with the ps5 at least. The port looks broken. I know this is not really an R2 issue but would this be fixable on my own? 

[SimonYoung]

Got it fixed. 900mb on ps5 now with QoS disabled so I imagine I won't get the same problems with latency and speedup lag anymore.

Nice! OK let us know how you get on.

Been working fine for the most parts. Speed wise it's all sorted. Couple of latency issues still. 

I know when I had the xr700 there was a bit of a fix about prioritising the console in another manner. Rather than just setting it to a games console there was someone numbers you could enter in advanced. Do you know what I'm on about?

Have you already tried manually adding a rule to Traffic Prioritisation for the console or are you using DumaOS classified games?

Alternatively you could add a rule to Traffic Prioritisation using the advanced method and prioritise all ports for the Playstation (1-65535).
