    RT-AX86U 2.5G port maximum is 1.3 Gbit/sec with iperf3

    Looks like the Iperf3 program running on the router itself has some restrictions. I believe this is a restriction in the firmware itself. Because the router only has one 2.5 gig port the gateway firmware is restricting in one direction. If uploading when connected to the 2.5 gig port I am...

    RT-AX86U Down/Up Wifi Speeds on Gigabit

    You are correct the speed is slower going out to the internet than wifi to the LAN. You can increase the speed restriction to that of the LAN speed by using a 2.5 gigabit switch to WAN. Then use your router as a AP to the switch. I am able to to get 980 Mbps to the LAN with a WIFI 6 1200 Mbps...
