    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    Yes both amber, I just tried again to confirm. And then strangest thing happened....after I set everything back to normal and went to grab my old DOCSIS 3.0 I ran another speedtest. Full speeds. I literally made no changes and have no idea what happened. I think the Spectrum modem, scared it...

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    Port is amber Not impressive speeds, but definitely above 100M: Accepted connection from 10.0.0.1, port 38890 [ 5] local 10.0.0.2 port 5201 connected to 10.0.0.1 port 39056 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 5] 0.00-1.00 sec 26.1 MBytes 219 Mbits/sec [ 5] 1.00-2.00...

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    I can't seem to access the modem at http://192.168.100.1 via browser or ping. Spectrum may have blocked it on these devices; it wouldn't surprise me. Edit: A user on reddit seems to confirm my suspicions: I'll try the iperf test when setting static IP on laptop/router WAN. I think I see what...

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    Bought it off Amazon. And WAN port looks fine. I mentioned earlier that I tried using LAN1 as primary WAN via Dual WAN mode with no changes, so unless both ports have issues the problem probably isn't there.

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    Sorry about that. Looks to be a DOCSIS 3.1, model Hitron E31N2V1. I had my own DOCSIS 3.0 before switching to Spectrum, but I seem to recall that they required I use theirs (or at least a DOCSIS 3.1 capable modem).

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    Standalone modem is provided by Spectrum so no available GUI page and status lights are the basic Power/Online. Would link speed possibly change from 1G to 100M depending on direct connection to device vs router WAN? Router CPU has barely any utilization during speed test. Like <5% on both...

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    I have tried a couple different cables. Also, I used the same cable that got 500+mbps from modem-to-device for the modem-to-router WAN connection. Wouldn't this discount the cable being the problem? Unfortunately my desktop is being rebuilt, so I have to use wired laptop and smartphone. However...

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    QoS is disabled I did perform the method you linked (as well "Factory default" restore using Administration page in router), and while the settings were returned to default and wireless network needed to be setup again, I was surprised that the latest firmware was maintained. I figured the...

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    @Tech9 Ports are at 1gbps I did some speed tests in the router interface as well, so I would assume the LAN ports wouldn't matter too much.

    Solved Down speed capped ~100mbps (GT-AC2900)

    I am paying for 500mbps down from my ISP, which I can get if wired directly to the modem. However, I'm getting no more than 95mbps when the GT-AC2900 is anywhere in the stream. Speed tests are consistent across wired device, wireless device, as well as the test directly in the router's web...
