Model: ER7412-M2  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.01

I bought a few weeks ago the TP Link ER7412-M2 router cause I needed a better IDS/ IPS performance for my FTTH internet connection..
I noticed now when I turn it on the performance is a little bit better than the performance of the ER707-M2 which I had before but only by 20mbit/s..
Basically when it is turned off I have a download of 350mbit/s when it is turned on "only 180-200" not my question is since the router has 4 cores why does it use only 2 CPU cores for the IDS/IPS?
Could you please fix that issue by a firmware update since 200 mbit/s IDS/IPS performance is not so well even not for the fact it coasts more than the ER707-M2 and it has 2 more CPU cores..

 

EDIT:

https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/712558

Here someone posted it should have 520mbit/s +- now I ask myself what did I configure wrong/ what do I need to change, at first I used it in standalone mode now I use it in controller mode, if it matters.

Some IDS/IPS options use much more CPU horsepower than others - do you have every option turned on ?

  @GRL 

7 of 12 are turned on

P2P and Internet Traffic is turned off the rest on..

[Here is a Screenshot]

Basically if anyone has any idea please tell me, maybe I'm doing something wrong

 

Edit: If you disable both of "Hacking" I get through around 290 which is takable but still, is there no way to use all 4 CPU cores instead of only 2?

and also in my opinion especially there it would be good to make it possible with a firmware update because hacking is probably a big part why people (like me) use IPS/ IDS, of course for DShield too

Read this regarding the core: Differences Between Router and Switch

 

Do the WAN LAN iperf or chariot. Paste the screenshot of the speed result.

And remember to erase all other settings like ACL, load balancing, bandwidth control or any speed limit functions. They all require the CPU.
