Have to use have fiber 1k/1k speeds for a good bufferbloat

Alright good morning! So i just bought the R3 and i wish it was a better expierence than what ive been having. I used to configure routers for all my cod gaming friends cause i know what im doing however with the R3 i am currently lost. I live in Canada with telus pure fibre internet. I logged into that hub and changed it to full bridge mode ran a speedtest and was able to get 950.2mbps down and 942.2 mbps upload with a 2 latency and 16 download latency and 6 upload latency. hooked up the R3 configure it and my pint went up to 8 download only hit 900mbps and upload around 700. both with latency all over the place. im wondering if you guys know how to resolve this issue or if i can send this router back and get my money back as my ISP hub is by far more stable.

Without doubt the bridge mode which poses a problem, tried in DHCP/DMZ behind the ISP modem router!

[bayleeshymko]

do you know why the bridge is the issue? i just want to learn and figure out why thats the issue. its just odd cause in bridge mode ill hook my pc up to the modem and the speeds are full and fine and then the router isnt.

Take the test! I get speeds of 945 Mbps in DHCP/DMZ behind R3!
945 Mbps being the real hardware limit of a Gigabit RJ45 port.
Sometimes ISP routers/modems do not provide true bridge mode...

yea like my isp has port 1 bridge or full bridge mode and its running on full bridge mode currently. ill have to mess around tonight with all of it i guess.

Just to be sure, did you do the test in IPv4 or IPv6?

[bayleeshymko]

i always test in ipv4

As well as the above where are you testing, on the router itself or on Ookla for example? 

[bayleeshymko]

i run every test on ookla to keep it consistent. what im gonna do tonight when i get home is reset everything. redo all the settings on the mode to bridge it again. run speedtests to see speeds. reconnect the r3, test speeds again to see what the issue is

Sounds good, keep us posted!
