TL-R605 v1 Low Download Throughput (Omada SDN)
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I just unboxed, updated to the latest firmware, factory reset with the pinhole, and adopted to Omada SDN a brand new TL-R605.
For some reason, no matter whether Hardware Offload is enabled or disabled, I get great upload speeds but awful download speeds. I've tested it on both a Spectrum 600x35 connection and on an AT&T FIber 1000 connection. Speed test results from the AT&T FIber 1000:
Any ideas what could be causing the weirdly slow download speeds? I don't have any Bandwidth Control or Profile settings made.

@Makedrow Same here, I specifically encounter very low download thoughput, uploading seems to work fine.
I also experience timeouts at homepages with online banking and voice protocolls (Teamspeak and Discord). Downloading large files is painfully slow after a few seconds of downloading, dropping to a few kb/s only.
I'm not able to revert to version TL-R605(UN)_V1_20200930 ("Router upgrade failed: The upgrade file is invalid. Please select a correct file.") - any idea why?

Where do you perform the test? Speedtest.net and server's on auto? Should not get this slow. Datasheet for Dynamic IP is around 900Mbps.

Use the .bin file unzipped/extracted from that downloaded zip file.

@Tedd404 I have the router doing the automated speedtest (every 10hrs) and I also downloaded speedtest-cli onto a RaspberryPi (hardwired to the curb). here is the Rpi results:
$ speedtest-cli --simple
Ping: 16.268 ms
Download: 606.20 Mbit/s
Upload: 378.51 Mbit/s
I have Verizon Fios and should have close to 900 up and down.
The router's automated tests get simliar numbers. (sometimes worse, rarely better.)

@Akaman just an FYI -- the raspberry pi chokes trying to do more than that over https. I found the same limitation using speedtest-cli on my pi4. If you instead snag your local Speedtest server's address from the network tools in your browser, and it supports http, you can get full speed.
Since my original reply on this topic, I nuked everything and started over. I'm currently running controller 4.4.4 and firmware 1.1.1 20210723 Rel. 64608 with no issues pulling gigabit speeds (from the sites that can supply it).
