Hey guys!
I'm new to this forum, however I have several years of experience as IT pro. I do have some trouble regarding a phenomenon I'm seeing on two routers now:
First I tried my Huawei E3272-153 4G/LTE USB stick (non-HiLink) that is known to achieve around 75/30 Mbit/s on various PCs (not limited by the provider) on a Linksys WRT160NL with DD-WRT with the funny result of constant 20 Mbit/s download while upload remains on full speed.
My guess was that maybe this old hardware isn't capable of higher speeds (still puzzled by the faster upload though), that's why I bought a faster recent model in the form of an Asus RT-AC56U. I have flashed the latest Merlin firmware onto it, but guess what: I'm still seeing the same problem with download speeds limited to nearly exactly 20 Mbit/s while upload is on normal speed.
The fast upload and the led on the stick guarantees that the stick really is in 4G/LTE mode, else I could have explained it by using 3G/UMTS.
Anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?
Best regards
Ryan
