[Cable] linksys E1200 is not giving full 18/1 TS speed as modem
today, i got TS service with Cable 18/1 Mbps, when i directly connect my modem to PC it gives 18/1 but when i add linksys E1200 router speed is going reduce to 6/0.5 Mbps.
please give me solution for increasing router speed to 18/1
Flash your router perhaps? I did mine a long while ago, and speeds weren't top notch, I flashed the latest I could and needless to say, speeds went up 40%... -- I hate rogers and their CRAP tech. support... But, MAJOR kudos to the TekSavvy team!
reply to newteksavvy DD-WRT will probably help, but even with stock firmware you should at least get the basic WAN speeds...are the speeds you mentioned using wireless? or wired?
reply to newteksavvy My Asus WL-520gu wasn't up for the task with Tomato or dd-wrt installed with a 28/1 and QOS. With VOIP that was pretty much mandatory. I don't know if it was a fault in my settings or the router but I ended up buying a new router which would more than meet my needs for years to come.
But definately what helps is turning off all the features you don't need (ie QOS). A quick google search showed that with your router turning off WMM helped some other guy. I wish you the best of luck tracking down the problem. It can be tough. Like other users have suggested... I've also had good experiences with both DD-WRT and Tomato firmwares.
