WRT1900ACV2 and NBN speed upgrades

Post by rockyd »

Gday all, should a WRT1900ACV2 be able to handle 750/50?
Using Speedtest.net, sometimes I see a 700+ result but most of the time I don't. If I plug computer directly into the NTD I see 750+ all of the 3 of 4 times I have tried that.

I think it should handle it… do you have QoS or anything else enabled that might impact that?
My Flint2 has handled the upgrade just fine.
I could probably unpack my wrt32x and check, but it is a slightly different cpu so it would not be a fair test. Would you like to see that comparison?

Not that I have turned on.

I was posting on Whirlpool about it.

To see the variability of the results.

For some reason, maybe coincidence, I had and still have more issues in Win 7, than in in Mint 21.

Today it took over 5 speedtests to different servers, to find a 700+ result.

As posted in the Whirlpool forum I suspect, maybe the test servers are being saturated by other people doing speedtest.

Fact that I do see some 700+ results, if I happen to test at the right time and right server, seems to indicate the router can handle it.
