WRT 1900AC WAN Port Speed

I'm using a Motorola SB6141 cable modem and it seems that since I upgraded the Linksys to the latest firmware,  1.1.8.164.461, my Cable Modem thinks it's connected to a 100Mb port rather than a 1Gb port.  (Cable modem link light is flashing amber, rather than blue)  Has anyone seen this or suggest what to do to resolve?  I was looking for a way to configure the WAN port but don't see any option to do so. I've also factory reset my modem, router, and reloaded the latest firmware, as well as swapped cables, with no change. 

Solved it myself by doing a hardware reset and reloading the firmware.

  • EA2700 WAN Port Speed

    I just bought an EA2700. The diagnostic says that the WAN port speed is 1 Gigabit. Speedtest however reveals max 85 Mbit throughput which makes me believe that is just Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit). My internet provider delivers 120 Mbit down speed and I would like to get full speed, what is wrong?

  • WRVS4400N Hard Set WAN port speed and duplex???

    Does anyone know if there is a way to hard set the wan port speed and duplex on a WRVS4400N V2 router?
    Any Help greatly appreciated..
    thanks,

    I believe that these statements are true.
    Auto negotiation is good when both sides are configured to negotiate. When one side does not negotiate the other side should not try to negotiate.

  • WRT350n - what is the WAN port speed?

    Hello,
    Virginmedia in the UK have 50mb download capability now which I am interested in purchasing. I have been advised to check that my current router (wrt350n V2 v2.00.18 firmware) is capable of handling that speed on it's WAN port prior to signing up. It's not clear on the data sheet if the WAN port is gigabut ehternet capable, same as the 4 ethernet ports, and I wanted to ask just to be absolutely sure.
    Any help or clarification gratefully received.

    As the Router which you have its an Giga bit Wireless Router, and all the LAN port on the Back of the Router are the Giga bit LAN Ports. Your Router will work with 50mb speed, and you should be able to go online from all your Computers.

  • WAN port speed on RVS4000

    I have an RVS4000 with the following:
    Firmware Version:
    V1.3.3.5
    CPU:
    STAR 9202
    I believe it's a v1 of the RVS4000 as I've tried to put the 2.x.x firmware and I couldn't.
    My ISP upgraded me to a 100Mb/20Mb down/up plan (Quantum 100 here: https://www.highlandsfibernetwork.com/internet). However, through my RVS4000, I get the following speeds:
    Download Speed 18498 kbps (2312.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed 19098 kbps (2387.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Latency 7 ms
    Client Time December 4, 2011 11:06 AM
    Server Time December 4, 2011 11:06 AM PST
    When I connect directly to the switch rather than through my RVS4000 I get:
    Download Speed 45818 kbps (5727.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed 6240 kbps (780 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Latency 5 ms
    Client Time December 4, 2011 10:59 AM
    Server Time December 4, 2011 10:58 AM PST
    Clearly there's something wrong here, where I'm getting less than half the download speed through the RVS4000 than I do without it. From the datasheet, it states that the RVS4000's WAN port is a 10/100/1000 port, so I don't see why I should have the limitation on speed.
    Can someone help resolve this?
    Robert.

    Hello Abudef,
    I disabled IPS and verified that QOS is disabled. Now with the speed test, I get a large improvement, basically bringing me up to the speed without the RVS4000 involved:
    Download Speed 41811 kbps (5226.4 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed 20550 kbps (2568.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Latency 5 ms
    Client Time December 4, 2011 07:47 PM
    Server Time December 4, 2011 07:46 PM PST
    Thank you so much for your help!

  • Setting WAN Port Speed on RV180

    We have an RV180 and can not get connected to a port on CPE equipment after setting the WAN port on the RV180 to 100/Full.
    The CPE equip port is set to 100 Mb/Full Duplex.  When the port on the RV180 WAN is set to AUTO and we connect to the CPE we see a lot of CRC errors and very poor performance.  When we set the RV180 WAN Port to 100/Full we see no traffic at all. 
    We have a Cisco ASA 5150 router connecting to the a different port on the same CPE and when we set its port to 100/Full we see very good performance.
    We have upgraded the RV180 to the latest FW (1.0.3.10) but that didn't solve the problem.
    Can anyone provide assistance with setting the WAN port to 100/Full with success?
    Thank you,

    Hi John, incrementing CRC errors traditionally indicate a physical problem. I've not known it to indicate anything different.

  • RVS4000 WAN PORT set to 1000Mbit

    Is there a way to set the WAN Port to 1000Mbit? My Cablemodem supports up to 1000Mbit on the interface but the RVS4000 only runs at 100Mbit WAN Port speed.
    It would be great to have the same options as for the LAN ports to change sensing also on the WAN port.
    Thanks.

    Hi Gonzalo,
    The RVS4000 router can only allow one WAN IP address at a time. The RV series routers (RV042, RV082, and RV016) can allow multiple WAN IP addresses for load balancing or failovers.

  • EA6500 manually select speed and duplex for WAN port

    Is there any way (hidden settings?) to manually select speed or duplex for WAN port on EA6500? I'm using EA6500 with Genexis HRG1044 (FTTH) and the latter has known issues with upload speed when local device is connected on gigabit. It seems that both EA6500 and Genexis HRG1044 only support autonegotiation and that always results in gigabit which results in poor upload speeds over the internet. Placing 100 Mbps switch between EA6500 and Genexis HRG1044 does the trick but I was wondering if it can be done without it. BTW, my internet speed is only 100/100 Mbps anyways.
    Solved!

    @discoHR If you don't mind me asking, for what purpose do you want to adjust the speed on the WAN port of the EA6500? Is it to increase the upload speed? I'm just spitballing, but I don't think there's any "hidden setting" to adjust it on the EA6500. 

  • Speed limitation on Time Capsule Ethernet WAN port

    I have a Time Capsule 2TB model A1409 that is connected to a Motorola Cable Modem SBV5121 and only connects to it ("green light") when the Ethernet WAN port is set to 10 Mbps/Half Duplex (fastest speed - average 5 Mbps for download) or 10 Mbps/Full Duplex (slowest speed - average 3 Mbps for download). No other mode can get a connection "green light". Time capsule software is 7.6.1.
    Today I connected a Cisco Linksys E2500 router to the same cable modem and download speed increased to 10 Mbps which is what I am paying for my ISP. I haven't even touched the ethernet WAN port configuration. Straight forward.
    I would be grateful if someone could point out a configuration change that would allow my TC to connect as fast as this Cisco router.

    It works fine in Bridge Mode with a Thomson Integrated Modem/Router. But I don't want to use this configuration since I won't be able to use the TC's Guest Network.
    Just tried connecting with Cisco's ethernet cable but remained the same.
    Is it possible to bridge the Thomson??
    Stick a small cheapo switch between the TC and Morotola and see if that fixes it.. as I said, not all chips quite talk to each other.. even in this day and age.
    And Motorola cable modems seem to have more problems than most .. this is not new to me.

  • Port speed and Wan speed

    While reading Cisco documentation, router have a specific WAN speed up to 21 Mbps etc or more depending on router. You also see port speeds of 100Mbps or 1Gbps, but why are Wan speeds limited to far less on most Cisco routers.

    If a router can support, for example, 21 Mbps, you don't want to have an interface of only 10 Mbps and you'll find router with 100 Mbps interface.
    Same goes with routers that can support, for example, 125 Mbps.  The routers will come with 1 Gbps interface instead of 100 Mbps interface.

    Sorry you didn't get an answer faster but you have to know this is a peer to peer forum. it is users helping other users so not always the quickest way. First off, can you change your ISP router to modem only mode? It is best that way as you will get conflicts such as what you are seeing when there are two routers in the same link. You are getting the ISP router when you enter 192.168.1.1 because that is its address on the LAN side. It appears that your router is getting set to a 10.x IP because of the setup. You have two routers trying to work with DHCP so that is also an issue. If you can change the ISP router to modem only mode then once it is up disconnect it from the router and do a factory reset on your router and make sure it has the IP of 192.168.1.1 and you will then be able to make any changes you need to. the default login is password of admin and leave the user blank.

  • WRT 1900AC and Windows 7 network naming question(s)

    Background:  I had a Linksys E3000 up and running for about 5 years in a stable network environment.  The E3000 died, and I put in a new WRT 1900AC to replace it.  In the process of getting things set up correctly the main "network name" in my network displays shows up as a name assigned to a Wireless portion of my network.  The "Wired" portion shows up in diagrams, and to windows, as well as both of the main wirless bands but not as the central node between either of the wired Win7 computers and the internet  I would like to get the Windows 7 machines on my network to display the wired network name in Windows 7 as the primary network, and NOT one of the wireless ones.  Almost everything I want to be able to do is working just fine except for the network map display in Windows 7 where I have been trying to configure a "home group" that will not yield to my efforts., 
    I use "suffix" notation in the naming, so my router on ethernet is .<ame>..NET, the wireless lower band is <name>...W24 upper band is <name>...W5.   I have not figured out how to get the artifacts of the "setup sequence of events" out of the Windows 7 displays in "network neighborhood" so I have a more rational picture that has Ethernet at the core and the wireless bands as additional subsidiary networks not necessarily associated with all my devices.  I know this is not technicallly a Linksys issue, but... Can I simply delete alll the neworking information in Windows 7, and reboot, and then force the computer to set up a network based on the correct network node labels. provided by the router?   I'm a bit worried that I might have to "reset" everything which would be a huge **bleep** since almost all of what I want to do is working just fine, I'm just not quite clear some times whether the process of connecting from one computer to another, or to a NAS attached to the router is going through the wired network or the wireless one where performance can be a big issue.  My Ethernet is "certified" at 1gbps which is a lot faster than the wireless networking.  Sometimes it seems that accessing the NAS attached to the router is being done "through a tiny straw, not the fast pipe in the wiered world.  I used to do a lot of NETBIOS networking in Windows "back in the day" and my network naming conventions have probably not kept up with the times, but I still have two Windows XP computers wired into my household network, and when "debugging" things I think of the Ethernet as central and the wirless portions as additional networks, not the other way around.  Unfortunately Windows 7 seemed to grab the wireless names first, probably because the machines in question both have wireless and wired connectivity built in and available in their hardware and the one that was set up and working with the old router when the new one got plugged in was used to do the initialization initially using the default sequence built into the router software.  I was able to go back and rename everything to get rid of the default names, but my Android based network monitor only works within range of the router and not when the phone is connected to the internet outside of the house.  I've never been able to get the phone support folks to help me clear that issue up either. ..  When I added the second computer, the same thing happened out of the box, Windows took the name of the first wireless network it found and put it into the network neighborhood as the device in the path between the new computer and the internet,   I can "see" the host name of the router correctly from everywhere, and map to the 1TB disk I have hung on it from all of my computers, but the Internet connection is actually an ethernet drop from a cable modem to an ethernet port on the router, not to either of the wireless bands that show up. 

    @zundapman Hi! What's the current firmware of your router? Make sure that your firmware is up to date with the latest version. Also, are you referring to the Windows explorer's map or the User Interface map of the router or the Network and sharing map of your computer?

  • WAN port limited to 10mbps on PPPoE

    Hello,
    I'm having trouble with the WAN port on my Airport Extreme. I got FTTC (fibre) coming into a VDSL2+ modem. When I connect my Mac directly to that I get roughly 70mbps download speed. But when using the Airport Extreme my connection caps at 10mbps! I have the 3rd generation, so all ports should be gigabit ethernet ports.
    I saw some other posts here suggesting to set the WAN port settings in Airport Utility. I can't find those in the latest utility, so downloaded Airport Utility 5.6, changed from PPPoE to Ethernet, set the WAN speed to 1000 duplex and set it back to PPPoE. Now it refused to connect at all and claimed the cable was unplugged. Not until I went in and set Ethernet to "automatic" did it connect again via PPPoE. So it seems that my Airport Extreme refuses to use a faster ethernet connection than 10mbps when using PPPoE.
    Any solution to this? There clearly is something wrong here! I contacted my ISP and they said that they have reports from other users of the Airport Extreme with the same problem.

    You didn't mention this, but it could be as simple your cable from the modem to the router. If you are using a Cat5 Ethernet cable, you need to be using a Cat5e or Cat6 cable. I use Cat6 cables on my network because they are certified to run at Gigabit speeds. Cat5e is not certified but can work on a Gigabit network.
    Also, when you direct connect your Mac to the AEBS you should be getting download speeds well over 100 Mbps, depending upon your system provider and what speed you're paying for. This leads me to believe it's the cable.

  • Port speed for ISL's and SP's , Hosts (MDS 9513)

    Is there any recommendation/best practise for
    1) setting port speed ie choose Auto or hard code eg 2gb, 4gb wrt b/w available ?
    2) ratemode ie dedicated or shared ?
    For ISL's And Storage processors/Controllers and hosts
    Thanks,

    For ISL's, if the line card is gen2, it must be configured as dedicated. For the port mode, I would recommend that you hard code the mode to E. I also like to code the speed on ISLs so that there is no chance that they would negotiate to a slower speed. IE: you don't want to have a 2GB link negotiate at 1GB.
    As for storage controllers, depending on the fan in ratio, I would recommend hard coding them to the device speed, and if the port-group has the bandwidth available, make them dedicated.
    As for hosts, they should be on the shared port, and I would leave them as port mode = auto. This way they can negotiate F or FL. You might want to configure a 'maximum allowable auto speed setting'.
    IE: if your hosts have 2GB HBAs, and are plugged into a 4GB capable port, they will never negotiate to 4GB...so why have the MDS think it needs to keep some bandwidth for that port (in shared mode). I forget the command, but there is way to set auto-max for the port speed on shared ports.
    Hope this helps,
    Mike
