Model: Archer BE550  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Latest

Hi,

When I perform a file upload test on my private local network via cable using the 2.5Gbps ports, it does not exceed 50 MB/s. The download speed is correct at 254 MB/s but the upload speed does not exceed 50 MB/s. The test consists of: PC with 2.5 Gbps LAN connection -> BE550 router 2.5 Gbps port -> NAS with 5Gbps port. Result only 50 MB/s.

(CAT6 cables)

 

Doing the direct test without the router, I do get 254 MB/s for upload. I suspect that the Jumbo Frame is not correctly configured on the Archer BE550 router since the upload speed is consistently limited to 50MB/s. However, there is no way to modify this value at the BE550 router level. Do you know how?

 

For example, (without connecting the BE550 router) if I limit the Jumbo Frame at the network card level of the PC and the NAs to a value of 4000, then the upload speed is indeed 50MB/s. When I change it to 9000 then I can reach upload and download speeds of over 260 MB/s.

 

I'm talking about a private network environment, it has nothing to do with the Internet.

I'm updating the status of the new official firmware of the BE550 V1 and hope others can also install it to confirm if the overall performance will be improved.

 

The official version 1.1.1 Build 20241230 brings a range of improvements and new features to enhance your networking experience, offering better performance, security, and ease of use. This update is gradually rolling out, and users can check for updates on the BE550's web interface or through the Tether App and install the latest version. We strongly recommend upgrading to this version to improve the overall experience.

Hi  @Pyero,

 

Archer BE550 does not support Jumbo Frame settings.
May I know if you tested the speed for a single file transfer or multiple files?

 

To assist you efficiently, I've forwarded your case to the TP-Link support engineers who will contact you with your registered email address later. Please pay attention to your email box for follow-up.
