Deco M9 - Lan ports can't provide full 1Gbit speed... only 500mbit
Hello,
After having to deal with some network performance issues between my computer and server, which i thought was SMB (samba) issue, causing me only to be able to transfer files with 50MB/Sec or 500 Mbit...
tried the following setups... hopfully this is understandable... :)
Method 1 - max speed archived over network file share and iperf3 speed test tool - 50MB/sec or 500 Mbit/sec
-------------------------
-> port 1, main computer,
mesh router
-> port 2, gigabit switch -> server
Method 2- max speed archived over network file share and iperf3 speed test tool - 50MB/sec or 500 Mbit/sec
-------------------------
-> port 1, main computer,
mesh router
-> port 2, server
Method 3- max speed archived over network file share and iperf3 speed test tool - 110MB/sec or Full 1Gbit/sec
-------------------------
-> port 1, main computer,
-> port 1, gigabit switch
-> port 2, server
mesh router
-> port 2, empty
So apprently the CPU SOC/firmware whatever in the deco m9, is not capable of running full 1gbit on the internal network ports between direct clients... but having both clients connected to a switch and then the switch to the mesh router, allowed me to bypass the mesh router due to layer 2 in the switch without having to router traffic to the mesh router...
