Not getting full bandwidth

Post by WillyUT »

Hi all,

I am using the TP-Link TL-WR1043N/ND v2. I had 1.8.1 installed and just upgraded to 1.9.2.

I recently upgraded my internet speed to 300mbps. When plugging in my computer directly into the providers modem I get 300mbps+ speeds. When I plug the router into the modem and then my pc into the LAN port on the router I can only pull 100mbps (with QOS disabled).

I have tried a few things (one of which was the firmware upgrade). I don't know what else to try at this point and can't find anything on the internet of similar problems.

Does anybody have any ideas of things I can try?

Thanks

Awesome thanks!

/etc/init.d/bwmon_gargoyle disable - got me to 200mbps. I see that hardware is also limited so I guess it may be time to buy a more expensive router.
