Seems impossible at the moment unless I'd rebuild with the following patch included:

Re: Force Archer C7 v2 WAN to 100Mbps
Okay, the rabbit hole goes a bit deeper than I'd anticipated :) It seems the router itself only has one real network interface which is set to 1000baseT/full. That interface is connected to a switch which can be controlled with 'swconfig'. 'swconfig' also shows the contents of the ARP table and port...

Force Archer C7 v2 WAN to 100Mbps
Recently discovered that the upstream router we're connecting too has its link speed set to 100baseT/full, but I can't get the WAN port on my router to match that. Auto negotiation sets it to 1000baseT/full and using ethtool doesn't have any effect. After turning off autoneg, the output for 'ethtool...

Re: Archer C7 V2 low throughput
Just did some tests during iperf which I couldn't really explain. As it turns out, the router negotiated a gigabit link over the cable to the CPE, while the laptop we tested with decided that 100Mbit/sec was better. Apparently the cable we used works fine on 100Mbit/sec but causes a bad connection a...

Re: Archer C7 V2 low throughput
Ok, that actually improved the speed a bit to around 16/12 Mbps. Still not great, but a definite improvement. Looking forward to hearing about your experiences with the C7.

Archer C7 V2 low throughput
First off I'd like to say I'm grateful for this type of project. The features are just what I was looking for. After trying both 1.8.1 and 1.9.0 I found that the throughput I'm achieving both over wired and wireless connections is very low. We have a 30/30 Mbps connection which in practice achieves ...
