EA2700 Connection Speed Low ( 72.2mbps )

Hi guys , this is my first post , if i do something wrong already apologize , I'm from Brazil , but I found no competent forum to remedy my doubt , so I came up here
I bought a linksys router EA2700 and after many different attempts to configure it, could not get the wireless connection speed exceeds 72.2mbps .
The speed is well lowers the specified in the manufacturer's website, which disappointed me with the device.
I wonder if anyone has gone through this , I hope a connection speed of at least 150 mbps
The updated firmware this latest version available on the site .
I hope someone can help me, thanks
Bruno Santaella
PS : Sorry for my English , I need another exchange program to improve it

Some devices dont' support higher speed connections. You'll need to consult with the Mfr of each device to see what connection rates they support. Various devices only connect at 65Mb, while others may connect at 150Mb or 300Mb depending. Connection rates differ between thruput rates.
There are other factors to take into consideration as well>
Wireless Configurations
What wireless modes are you using?
Try single mode G or N or mixed G and N on 2.4Ghz and single mode N or Mixed on 5Ghz?

Router Placement
Forum User - "Well I feel really dumb. After moving the router away from other electronic devices my speeds are back to normal. Just a heads up for anyone experiencing slow speeds, you might want to move it away from other electronics and see if that helps."
3-6' feet minimum safe distance between devices.
Placement on main level floor and central in the building and WELL ventilated is preferred. Not in basements or closets as building materials, or near by electronics devices could interfere or hinder good signal propagation.

WRT300N connection speeds low & all over the place!

Hi all, last year I had the same issue along with the router just locking up. When I updated the firmware to 1.03.6 & had the online support tech help with a few tweaks, the issue was dead, until recently.
I've reset the router & nothing.
My notebook is about 10 ft away though 2 rooms as I'd look at the router if I could see it through the wall, it's 90 degrees, including the center antenna, offset from my notebook.
It's set up kinda like this:
Router orientation: |
Laptop orientation: __
I mention this because I'm not sure which way the center antenna is supposed to be for best reception, or even if it's the N antenna or not.
The 2 other antennas are left straight up vertical
So anyone have a clue why the sudden speed changes?
I've seen low as 2 but lately an average of 24-36 & rarely 48-54 anymore.
Yeah, I'm using my notebooks internal G card since the USB300N doesn't seem to work with my Vista.
Thanks.
Oh, if another wireless notebook connects at the same time I'm on, will my speeds also slow down?
My GF's kid wants me to set him up so when he's over he can use my wirless connection.
I told him I'd look into it 1st.
I will be buying a D-link draft N express card since Linksys doesn't seem to want to make one & continues making PCMCIA cards instead.

Castor, thanks for the reply but your answer was totally unrelated & did not answer the questions at all.
1st, I haven't moved the antennas & 2nd, as I wrote, this just started happening & it will randomly change, even while I'm online.
Now at times I'm down to 1 Mbps speeds.
That said, is my router going south?

EA2700 download speed - local port connection speed

Hi,
I've recently upgraded my ISP connection to 200Mbs dl and 20Mbs upload.
Using a test (speedtest.net) to determine my connection speed i discovered that the downloadspeed only reached about 75 Mbs , but with the modem directly attached to the computer it reaches almost 190 Mbs , so the problem must be with the EA2700 router.
I've tried everything , upgrading firmware , downgrading firmware , changing the MTU , dissabling IPv6 etc.
I have narrowed the problem down to this: After starting my computer (from the off power) the downloadspeed is 75Mbs (although the status within the routers webinterface says i have both on WLAN and localport 1Gb).
After restarting the router (by the routers webinterface) the speed is 180Mbs.
Seems like i have to start the computer first and then switch on the router (ridiculous i know) , seems like although the portspeed indicates 1Gb i only have a 100 Mb port speed....
Any ideas? or is this just a crappy router?

I suspect that this is a basic internal issue in the router.
I'm a retired networking system administrator and am not unfamiliar with devices that don't work the way the sales force claims -- especially at the upper limits of those claims.
I have only been playing with the EA2700 now for a few days, but am absolutely astounded at how "un-professional" all of the documentation and support information for the device is.
I say "un-professional" meaning -- seriously consumer oriented. No technical specifics. Granted I'm familiar with the "classic interface" on Linksys products and am not particularly enamored of this new web based environment. But that's just my history.
At any rate. I'm fairly certain that you need to try to reach "tier 2" (or maybe higher) tech support on the phone to find out what the actual throughput capabilities of the hardware and software are.
200Mbs is a "new" speed common to FIOS, but not to Cable. The end result being that the probability that new-product testing at that speed is at best, incomplete. And, I suspect it has not been done at all.
While the "chips" may be capable of running at Gig-a-bit speeds, a router's speed is controlled by the internal "routing speed" of the software.
Before I retired, I used to confont this kind of issue routinely in working with Internet2 -- the hardware available "claimed" to be able to do the job, but the on-the-job evaluations proved that it was not capable. But we had to spend a lot of time developing tests to refute manufacturer's (marketing) claims.
It may be the simple fact that the EA2700 (as best I can tell) is now very long in the tooth -- apparently introduced back in April of 2012 -- 3 years ago - an eternity in Networking. That coupled with the fact that the EA2700 is the "entry level" device in Linksys' EA product line.
An interesting review (Review Date April 30, 2012) in PC Magazine: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2403745,00.asp primarily discusses the WiFi side of the router. It hedges its bets on the hardware by saying "We will revisit this router when that software becomes available. Perhaps then the true value of the EA2700 will shine though." (I haven't found that review yet.)

Good connection but low speed with time capsule

Currently I am having a very good wireless connection, but the speed of the internet is only high when the time capsule is placed close to my i-Mac.
How to increse the speed of my connection?
Having the time capsule close by, let's say around 5 meters, the connection speed is 45 Mbts but placing the time capsule in another room, let's say 10 meters the connection is good but the speed is very low, 5 Mbts.
Is there any antenna which I could use?

I understand the issue with noise on the g & b, but why would my hard wire Ethernet feed be effected by the radio mode?
Everything is on the same "connection" to the Internet. So, if you have a wireless problem, it can and most certainly will affect an ethernet connection to the Internet since everything passes through the WAN port on the Time Capsule.

Very low connection speed.

Hi, I've waited the 10 days since I first got BT Broadband and I wondered about the slow speed I am getting. The speed test says my line is rated for 8mbit (8000kbit) but I only get up to 900kbit connection speed, it was around 600-700kbit for a while but now seems to have settled at 900~kbit. When I ordered the package the line check said I can get between 8 and 15megabit but should expect 8.5.
Is there a fault on the line? The online speed checker thing (which seems to have been replaced or I just can't find it anymore) said I should report a fault and that on my line I should be connecting at more like 6000kbit-7000kbit.

E2000 low connection speeds

I recently "upgraded" my router from a WRT54G to the E2000, and changed my wireless computers to USB-N adapters. At first they were only at 54Mbps but found I had to use WPA2 (I was on WPA) and after making the change, I had anywhere from 107Mbps to 130Mbps connections. (Although these are dual-band adapters, I can't take advantage of 300Mbps because I left the router on 2.4Ghz only since I have some wireless-G only laptops and I understand you can't have the router on 5Ghz because they won't connect.) Anyway, a few days later, when I checked the connect speeds of these wireless-n computers, one was at 5Mbps, another at 20-something. Signal strength is good to the computers as it's always been. Does this router "alter" the speeds "as needed" or something? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I just completed setting up my WRT54G with my E2000 and switched the E2000 to 5Ghz band. Now when my computers with dual band capability connects with the E2000 (using a couple of channels in the hundreds, like 129 and something or whatever) I see a connect speed varying anywhere from 140 to 300Mbps, whereas all my 2.4Ghz equipped computers are at 54Mbps. My daughter's computer has wireless-n but only on 2.4Ghz and it originally connected as high as 130Mbps until I switched the E2000 to 5 Ghz so now she's stuck at 54Mbps. I suppose if I had bought the E3000 (?) or another model that also supports both bands simultaneously then she'd have her wireless-n speeds as well as the others that could run on 5Ghz which affords more "open" channels compared to what's available on 2.4Ghz... (didn't want to spend that much money on a wireless-n router since I knew I could still use my WRT54G since selling it would get me almost nothing for it... might as well use it...

Progressively Slower Connection Speed

I have a shielded cable connecting the router to the line-box and the line-box has an ADSL filter faceplate which ought to mean I don't need filters anywhere in the house. This was fitted by a BT engineer.
I would be grateful if anybody could make a recommendation as I've tried everything I can think of.
Thanks in advance,

I've tried the quiet-line test with a corded phone and get a constant buzz.

Issues with Infinity - Connection Speed & Other Pr...

Hi all,
I had Infinity installed on 2nd November. Besides some issues with BT mixing up delivery addresses the installation by Kelly Comms went smoothly, and was setup within 45 mins.
Initial speeds were very good, achieving 74Mb/s Down & 18Mb/s Up with a Ping/Latency of 5ms Excellent really considering the sub 5Mb/s I was used to with ADSL. The high connection speeds remained over the weekend until about 4pm on November 5th. I found that the Openreach Modem had lost connection (flashing DSL light) and my HH3 Broadband light was a steady orange. I left this for a while before picking up my landline to call customer services only to find that my line was dead with no dial tone.
Broadband eventually came back on service later that afternoon, but at a much lower speed of 43Mb/s Down, and an almost impossibly slow 0.97Mb/s Up. Ping/Latency has also slowed to around 20ms. During the evening I managed to get through to customer services in India, who were able to start dealing with the fault on my phone line.
Initially I was told it would be the 12th of November that the problem with the phone line would be resolved. Fortunately enough it was then fixed the following morning by an apparent engineer visit. I was unaware of this action until later in the day, but had noticed before leaving for work that Broadband was yet again down.
So to cut a long story short: I have a phone line that works, but a big reduction in connectivity speed especially upstream speed. Should I be contacting BT to investigate yet another potential problem bearing in mind that I am still within the supposed '10 day training' window.
(All speed tests have been conducted via a PC connected by ethernet directly to the HH3)
If anyone can advise me it would be much appreciated.

Hi Tidycarrot,
Welcome to the Forum. What was the speed estimate given to you when you signed up to the service? If the speeds you are see are well below that estimate, send me in your details using the link below and I'll run a few test on you line from here.

WPA-TKIP WPA2-AES Connection speed

Hi,
My customer uses controller based wireless network. There is a connection speed problem between two SSID's. First SSID uses WPA(TKIP+AES) and WPA2(TKIP+AES) encryption method and dot1x authentication method. Second SSID uses open authentication (this is a guest SSID)
802.11 a/n/ac is enable on WLC and client can connect with these methods. But clients connect to the first SSID with 802.11 b/g (54 Mbps) and connect to the second SSID with 802.11 a/n/ac. Customer wants to know why our clients connect with low speed to first SSID even if a/n/ac is enable.
Sometimes WPA-TKIP encryption methods can reduce the connection speed. Do you have any idea about that and official document about this problem?
Thanks,
Burhan,

TKIP and AES are two different types of encryption that can be used by a Wi-Fi network. TKIP stands for “Temporal Key Integrity Protocol.” It was a stopgap encryption protocol introduced with WPA to replace the very-insecure WEP encryption at the time. TKIP is actually quite similar to WEP encryption. TKIP is no longer considered secure, and is now deprecated. In other words, you shouldn’t be using it.
AES stands for “Advanced Encryption Standard.” This was a more secure encryption protocol introduced with WPA2, which replaced the interim WPA standard. AES isn’t some creaky standard developed specifically for Wi-Fi networks; it’s a serious worldwide encryption standard that’s even been adopted by the US government. For example, when you encrypt a hard drive with TrueCrypt, it can use AES encryption for that. AES is generally considered quite secure, and the main weaknesses would be brute-force attacks (prevented by using a strong passphrase) and security weaknesses in other aspects of WPA2.
The “PSK” in both names stands for “pre-shared key” — the pre-shared key is generally your encryption passphrase. This distinguishes it from WPA-Enterprise, which uses a RADIUS server to hand out unique keys on larger corporate or government Wi-Fi networks.
In summary, TKIP is an older encryption standard used by the old WPA standard. AES is a newer Wi-Fi encryption solution used by the new-and-secure WPA2 standard. In theory, that’s the end of it. But, depending on your router, just choosing WPA2 may not be good enough.
While WPA2 is supposed to use AES for optimal security, it also has the option to use TKIP for backward compatibility with legacy devices. In such a state, devices that support WPA2 will connect with WPA2 and devices that support WPA will connect with WPA. So “WPA2″ doesn’t always mean WPA2-AES. However, on devices without a visible “TKIP” or “AES” option, WPA2 is generally synonymous with WPA2-AES.
WPA and TKIP compatability options can also slow your Wi-Fi network down. Many modern Wi-Fi routers that support 802.11n and newer, faster standards will slow down to 54mbps if you enable WPA or TKIP in their options. They do this to ensure they’re compatible with these older devices.
In comaprison, even 802.11n supports up to 300mbps — but, generally, only if you’re using WPA2 with AES. Theoretically, 802.11ac offers theoretical maximum speeds of 3.46 Gbps under optimum (read: perfect) conditions.
In other words, WPA and TKIP will slow a modern Wi-Fi network down. It’s not all about security!

Loss on connection speed

Hi out there,
I just purchased wireless router wrt54-gs and adapter wusb54gsc for my laptop.
Installation went ok and got system up and running. When I first starting using
system my signal strength was excellent and connection was at 54mpbs. Checked
my download speeds with dsl reports at a consistant 2500-3000 mpbs. After using
system for a while I noticed signal strength read good and connection fluctuated
at 11mpbs and 5 mpbs, all of this happening with my laptop in the same position!!
I rebooted the laptop numerous times and still the same slow connection speeds.
After shutting system down ovenight in same physical location, rebooted and still
have same slow connection.
Any ideas????
Thanks

I can't help you, but I have the same situation. I have a speedbooster usb adapter hooked up to my desktop and haven't moved it a twitch, yet I get differing connect speeds and signal strength varies back and forth from low to very good. Only have one neighbor that I can see who is broadcasting a wireless signal. Just curious what is going on.

Connection Speed

Hi All,
Had some issues with my broadband router, replaced it and it's been stable for quite a few days. Prior to the instability I was getting 4.5mb download, but now it's stuck at 2.2, and has been for the last 91 hours.
Speedtest shows my ip profile at 2mbps, want to know the best way of getting that profile back where it was.
I saw on some other posts you can email the forum mods and they will assist, that might be my best option, but thought I would post statistics here just to confirm what I am saying.
I'm 99.9% happy with my setup at home, and have done the various tests to confirm it's not something I am doing, think the previous router going bad caused the issue.
Some screenshots attached of my speedtest results, and the stats from the router.

Go to Solution.

your connection speed is being restricted by an increased noise margin caused by the earlier router problems you need to maintain a stable connection for up to 10 days and your noise margin will start to drop automatically and your speed increase

Internet speed dropped from 2Mbps to 135Kbps for p...

Hi,
Until last week i had 2Mbps internet which was fine and stable, then it suddenly dropped to 135K.
I did not change anything on my network to caus this
I have tried a different router/cables/microfilters and virus checked with avira and malwarebytes none of which did anything so i am convinced it is an external problem.
I called india who reckoned i had 6Meg available.
Please can you find out if anything has changed somewhere else in your network or with my account that would cause this.

Hi Welcome Your IP Profile has dropped because of a noise issue on your line causing the exchange equipment to see your line as unstable normally the profile will rise within a period of 3/5 days providing there are no restarts on your hub.
Some exchanges are now using a new profiling system that gives 88.2% of your connection speed the profile change on these exchanges is immediate at the new connection speed all you can do is wait while the exchange equipment restores your profile

Lumia 620 - connection speed to router ( BT (UK) H...

I have a UK BT Home Hub 2b.
My nettbook connects to it at either 54Mbps or occasionally 104Mbps, as reported by the router. The speed is usually 54 but occasionally when close to the router (or maybe on 'low noise' days) it hits 104.
My 620 always connects at 39Mbps as reported by the router never faster and never slower. Even if I'm right by the router or at the other end of the house, its 39Mbps as reported by the router.
This seems odd to me that the netbook, a few years old now, seems to connect faster than a phone purchased in the last month. I know 39Mbps is probably fast enough in reality for a phone, but was wondering if others have seen this speed differenece or if I have a setting somewhere incorrectly set (either on the router or the phone), or maybe the phone is faulty?
The networks is set for 'n' working. I have asked BT who were of little help.
Any ideas?
Any Lumia 620 people on a BT hub of any type getting similar speeds (39Mbps) or connecting at faster speeds?
Thanks in advance.

aleisha11,
Thanks for the reply. I was more hoping that others would share their typical connection speeds. I realise its not (probably) possibly to make direct comparissons between a netbook and a phone, but they are the only two bits of wireless kit I have.
I only asked, because tucked away in the NOKIA FAQs was this gem:
When connecting Nokia mobile device (e.g. N8-00) to a WLAN access point using the IEEE 802.11n mode, connectivity issues have been observed with access points from certain vendors. Problems have been observed with at least the following WLAN products:
FritzBox 7270
Livebox 2
BT HomeHub V2.0 Type B
Netgear DGN1000
The issue is related to a WLAN chip used in these access points. To solve the problems, it is recommended to upgrade the access point firmware to the latest version.
If there is no firmware update available or the update doesn't help, the workaround is to disable the 802.11n mode and force the access points to use just the 802.11b/g mode.
And as it doesn't mention the specifics or the BT HH2b software level, I just wondered if the lower speed had an impact on my main issue - http://betalabs.nokia.com/trials/play-to-for-wp8/Discussion/Play-to-lumia-620-DLNA-panasonic-video-s...
I'd still be interested in anyone typical router connection speed if they would care to share.

Ridiculous Connection Speeds

Hi All,
Following issues with line noise which have gone since removing the front plate from my OpenReach master socket and plugging directly in there, I now have an issue with really poor latency and speeds. I don't want to have to restart the HH3 as it's been up for over 3 days now (a record) which is strange as the HH3 shows uptime of 2days 4hrs - last IP change was 26/4 15:33.

Do the line stats make any sense? Could this be a HH3 issue? Am I just expecting too much?
Can anybody point me in a direction that will help me solve this as this has been a rather black comedy since the install on 4/4 - especially as I have to pay for this.
Cheers,
Ian

Hi klinkenhoff,
Your IP Profile would be about 2mbps as it's 88.2% of your current connection speed which was 2.212 Mbps from your last set of adsl stats.
Your throughput speed is the speed you experience when using the Internet and is also the speed which speed test websites use.
Your throughput speed will be slightly slower than your IP Profile and can be effected by how you connect to your router/home hub such as Wifi or Ethernet and also network traffic and congestion.
So:
1) Your connection speed is the speed which your homehub/router and the local exchange is connected at.
2) Your IP Profile is a speed limit applied to your broadband service by the local exchange. Its purpose is to ensure the exchange doesn't 'overload' your broadband service by sending more data down your phone line than it (or your BT Home Hub, router or modem) can physically handle.
As your on ADSL2+ your IP Profile will always be 88.2% of your connection speed.
3) Your throughput speed is the speed you experience when using the Internet and is also the speed which speed test websites show, it can be effected by how you connect to your router/home hub such as Wifi or Ethernet and also network traffic and congestion
Hope that makes sense.
Cheers
I'm no expert, so please correct me if I'm wrong

Save for Web: change default connection speed

I've checked my Photoshop book, the online help, the knowledgebase and done a forum search. I may be using the wrong keywords.
When I go to Save for Web and Devices and I look at the optimized, two-up view or four-up views, down in the optimization info area in the lower left hand side of the window, how do I change the default speed from 28.8 to something else? In CS2 there was a way to change this, and now I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in CS3.
Can anyone please help? Thank you in advance.
Photoshop CS3, OS 10.5.5, MacPro, 4G RAM

Theresa, just to clarify for the benefit of others reading this thread in the future,
if I recall correctly, those settings
DO NOT affect the file at all, they're there for the only purpose of showing you how long the file will take to open at each of the indicated connection steps so that you can choose an appropriate size for the file.
The "default" setting is, therefore, only relevant to the extent that you may want to see that information at a given connection speed every time you save a file without having to click on the contextual menu.
