    Netgear R7800-X4S Firmware 1.0.2.60

    Okay, that was all the encouragement that I needed. Made the switch to Voxel.

    Netgear R7800-X4S Firmware 1.0.2.60

    I finally realized my connection problems were from the updated firmware. I rolled back to 1.0.2.52 and so far so good. It does seem like an issue that should have been caught by QA. Maybe it's time to pull the trigger on the Voxel switch that I have been contemplating for so long...

    R7800 - connects at 100 Mbps, when ASUS AC68p manages 1 Gbps

    I'm not sure if you mis-interpreted my posts. The ASUS always connected at 1Gbps. However, when I attached the R7800 as an AP and connected my workstation to it (via 1Gbps ethernet) I initially saw 230 Mbps. However, since the previous post I consistently see 940+/940+ up and down with the same...

    R7800 - connects at 100 Mbps, when ASUS AC68p manages 1 Gbps

    More data. Less certainty. I just updated the firmware on the AC68P to the latest. Went to speedtest.net and my speeds are back to 940Mbps. Not sure what to make of this. I note that the firmware reboot caused all but one wireless client to migrate to the R7800 - at least this is my...

    R7800 - connects at 100 Mbps, when ASUS AC68p manages 1 Gbps

    More data and some conclusions but also another question. See my other post for context: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/advice-for-3-compact-floors-unusual-wiring.40818/ The Webpass tech measured wire distances for 3 of 5 wall connection boxes - all but one jumpered as seen in my other...

    R7800 - connects at 100 Mbps, when ASUS AC68p manages 1 Gbps

    I recently purchased a Netgear R7800, based in part on the impressive performance as tested here. As soon as I connected and configured the router I went to speedtest.net to verify the connect speed. To my surprise, I was seeing 94Mbps up and down, vs the 940Mbps up and down I previously saw. I...

    advice for 3 compact floors + unusual wiring

    My condo unit has three levels: loft, main floor, and bedrooms below. Total area is just over 1000 square feet. My small building (8 units) recently converted to Webpass with 1 Gbit fiber to our garage. This service uses ethernet over the existing in-wall wiring to get to the units. For my...
