    [Sort of SOLVED] Slow Wifi Upload for XT8 on Verizon Fios

    yeah I’m actually still on old firmware that was suggested. But I’m not quite sure how to do what’s suggested, using a regular router in between the Ont and the ASUS without putting the ASUS in bridge mode. So I can still use the router mode on the ASUS but have that regular router in between...

    [Sort of SOLVED] Slow Wifi Upload for XT8 on Verizon Fios

    can you explain this? I tried a switch between the Ont and the ASUS router and it didn’t work. You’re suggesting using a wired router instead, between the Ont and the ASUS zenwifi router? How would I do this and still be able to use the zenwifi in router mode?

    So has anyone tried running one of these cheap routers yet? I tried an unmanaged switch before and it did nothing

    sucks I even have to try this. I would’ve returned the ASUS if it wasn’t past the window. Who would’ve thought such a feature rich, expensive setup can’t do the basics of supplying the internet. Smh

    Workaround or fix for slow upload speeds on Asus Zenwifi XT8 w/Verizon Fios?

    right now I’m just using the ASUS as the router. I put the firmware 42095 on all nodes and factory reset all nodes. I’m connected but I’m not getting the advertised speeds on my gigabit fios connection. The upload is particularly less, getting around 150-250, sometimes less than 100. The...

    the Orbi was in router mode. No issues. I only changed it because I wanted WiFi 6 and separate 2.4 and 5 ghz ssids. so you think they were both acting as routers? I had the Verizon at one point as the router, and the ASUS in AP mode.

    Workaround or fix for slow upload speeds on Asus Zenwifi XT8 w/Verizon Fios?

    I went ahead and did a factory reset on both the Verizon router and ASUS. Right now I’m just using the ASUS in router mode, I changed the firmware to the 42095 which by reports seems stable. My internet is working albeit the same issue of slower speeds (upload in particular) persists. So I may...

    Workaround or fix for slow upload speeds on Asus Zenwifi XT8 w/Verizon Fios?

    yeah I understand. Problem was I wasn’t getting my full speeds using my ASUS as a router. So I used the Verizon router and put the ASUS in AP mode. So now I’m getting my full speeds but the intermittent dropouts are now occurring. I’m trying to remember which firmware I read seemed to be pretty...

    Hey, thanks for responding...... I'm on firmware 3.0.0.4.386_43170.....on all nodes. I haven't updated to the latest firmware yet, I've actually read an older firmware seems to be more stable, I forgot which one though......maybe I can try manually going to that firmware version...... Yeah...
