How slow is my internet coming from my router?
How slow is my internet coming from my router?
So my internet provider gives me fiber, and usually my download is around 900 Megabits per second while my upload is about 400 Megabits per second. It works perfectly if I plug a cat5E ethernet cable straight from the modem to my PC. But when I connect through my router (modem -> router -> pc), the upload speed seems to get capped at around 100 Megabits per second, sometimes even less. The download stays the same though. When I use Wi-Fi in 5Ghz mode, everything works great. I tried updating all my network drivers and doing a clean install of the system. Yes, I have that specific 2.5 Gigabit ethernet adapter on my motherboard. My router is an Asus RT-AX53U. I did a factory reset and didn't enable any QoS settings. The firmware is already up to date. Every driver on my computer has been updated too. My question is: What can I do to stop this upload speed limitation? Edit: Oh, right, I use the latest Windows 11 Home edition.
I used to try both Speedtest.net and Fast.com, but Fast.com wasn't good because I'm in Hungary. Right now, Speedtest.net is the best tool for my area.
