Hanky_Bannister 07/22/19 10:59:01 PM #1:	My ISP upgraded my speeds from 100mbps to 200. When i tested the LAN speed it would only go up to 100 after the increase. I thought it was the router since I was able to get the 200mbps speed connecting directly through the modem. Looking into the router I found out its LAN speed were only 10/100 so I thought getting a router with 10/100/1000 would allow me to get the full 200, but I just tested and its still hovering at 100. Any suggestions? --- "3rd Best Whiskey in Northern Burma" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvjOu4EzjYg <cite>Hanky_Bannister posted [p:925053903] in Any networ...

Rika_Furude 07/22/19 11:01:36 PM #2:	Im not a networking expert but maybe its autonegotiated a lower speed because reasons. You could try manually setting the speed at 1gb I dont know how you would do this on your router and i dont know if its even a thing for routers --- Posted with GameRaven 3.5.1 <cite>Rika_Furude posted [p:925054017] in Any networ...

Fossil 07/22/19 11:07:33 PM #4:	If you got the upgraded speed connecting directly to the modem, then there's a good chance it is the router. Although it is unlikely, there's a chance the WAN to LAN throughput is really shitty on both routers. You should be able to do a quick google search to look up what their maximum throughput potential is. <cite>Fossil posted [p:925054284] in Any networ...

It should be somewhere in the router's firmware, possibly on a status page.
