Extremely quick internet connections, but significantly poor download upload performance.
Hello, I've been meaning to upgrade my home network, I've been using Google's Wi-Fi mesh network for about part of 2 years now, but I faced a lot of maintenance issues with them (wi-fi & Lan speeds dropping etc...) and so after 2 years and 2 unresponsive hubs I decided to look for a new networking solution. So after watching the recent Short-Circuit YouTube video on the ASUS Zen WIFI Pro ET12 Router I decided It would be a suitable replacement and the reviews where great on it so I decided to pull the trigger. It's been 2 weeks after installation of the New Wi-Fi mesh system, my WIFI speeds are absolutely Amazing! I'm getting almost 800 GB/s on downloads and about 300 MBPS on uploads but on the other hand my Lan speeds are horrible! I'm receiving about 1 GB/s on downloads (Amazing) but receiving 1-5 MBPS on upload speeds (Bruh). I've tried countless network restarts, entire modem & mesh resets, new land cables and numerous devices. I'm absolutely stumped and have no idea what todo. Somethings about my network: Verizon Fiber Gigabyte plan 4 different Mesh points around my home. I do require LAN connections for some equipment in my home like the camera systems so it's crucial to have at least decent upload speeds over LAN. I would greatly Appreciate any help/Suggestions. Thank you! I've attached some screenshot's for reference.
Initially, your quoted rates are in megabits per second (M b ps). MBps stands for megabytes per second. You're using Verizon's gigabit plan, not gigabyte. I'm guessing these speeds come through a wired internet link to the ISP, not via cellular networks. Secondly, mesh network LAN isn't a true LAN since connecting via Ethernet at a mesh node still involves wireless communication with the base station, which faces similar interference issues as other wireless devices. What actual speeds do you experience when directly linked through Ethernet to your ISP device?
I’ll verify once I’m back home for the direct wired modem link, but why are the upload speeds so low? With my other Google Wi-Fi mesh, uploads and downloads were around 100-200. Should I look for a setting to turn on or should I reach out to my ISP?
Verify that every interface is compatible in terms of speed and duplex settings, with no inconsistencies detected. This could be caused by a partial duplex issue between your PC and the ISP modem. As recommended, link your PC/laptop directly to the ISP modem to test the actual speed. Then examine your wired LAN devices; consider enabling autonegotiation for them.
