[SOLVED] rt-ac87u speed bottleneck

[adihant]

Hello, I bought the rtac87 about 6 months ago and have been really pleased with it. I am in the uk and was on talktalk 38mb fibre. My speeds have been around 38mb wired and 29mb wireless. I just upgraded to up to 76mb speed and am disappointed that my wired speed has stayed at around 38mb whereas the wireless has increased to around 38mb.
I have just been on to talk talk technical who advised me to try the supplied router (hauwai hg635). The speed shot up to around 56mb wired and 46mb wireless.
I am running latest merlin firmware on the asus, but must confess am a total noob with any network settings. I just wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction. I have the stock openreach modem connected to asus so am unsure if the problem could lie somewhere with that.
Thanks for reading

Didn't you set up manualy QOS before to 38Mb?

Hi thanks for the reply, I have just power cycled the modem and everything is now working fine.
