Archer C7 AC1750 5Ghz - maxes out at 92Mbps
2020-05-27 13:02:25
Model: Archer C7  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 3.14.3 Build 150427 Rel.36706n

Hi! I recently got a new ISP (FibreStream) with a 500mbps up/down. However, I cannot get the archer c7 (firmware 3.14.3 Build 150427 Rel.36706n) to get more than 90-95mbps. I've disabled dual band and have only enabled 5Ghz, but that didn't make a difference. Upgrading firmware, etc. has had no effect.

 

Please help!

Turn off QoS? Review internet connection with ISP, connection with LAN/RJ45 has greater speed?

yea, good call. I've reached out to my ISP to ensure everything is good there. Currently I'm eyeing up the cable that's connecting the router to the wall, as it's a cat5E which, in theory, should be fine... but am confirming with them. 
 

I'll take a look at QoS... I've read others mention that but I can't for the life of me find it in the old admin panel. Will continue investigating.

So I swapped out the cat5e for a cat6 between the router and the panel. Wired speeds on the xbox are now maxing out at 500+mbps, which is great, however wifi is still lagging behind at 190mbps. Can't seem to find any QoS settings in the old green admin panel that came with v2.
