Hello, 

I just recently upgraded my internet plan and my router doesn't go 300mbps as advertised when I'm connected to wifi...

70mbps

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But when I connected directly to my ISP's modem using a cable, it's working fine.

Any recommendation or tips is greatly appreciated.

TL-WR840N WAN/LAN ports support only 100mbps bandwidth - specs.

To utilize the upgraded ISP bandwisth of 300mbps, you'll need a gigabite router like Archer C64 (for example).

If this was helpful click once on the arrow pointing upward. If this solves your issue, click once the star to mark it as a "Recommended Solution".

  @terziyski Apologies for the late reply but I'm not using wan/lan ports. I'm using WIFI, it says in https://www.tp-link.com/ph/home-networking/wifi-router/tl-wr840n/#specifications that Wifi Speeds have 2.4 GHz: 300 Mbps (802.11n) but I'm only getting lower speed than that.

  @terziyski Apologies, I understand now. I connected my modem router via cable to wan port so it only gets 100mbps. Thank you for the answer!
