Hello everyone
I've noticed my download speed has been quite slow lately. I've already tried several solutions, but nothing seems to help. The upload speed appears normal. Important details: connecting a cable directly from the modem to the PC gives optimal performance. Nothing unusual here. When using the router, the speed drops by about 20%. The router itself hasn't changed recently, yet the speed remains low. I've reset the modem and disabled DHCP without any improvement. I also checked if replacing the modem would work, but that option isn't available at the moment. My provider is Telenet, and my equipment includes a DOCSIS 3.0 modem and a Netgear Orbi RBK50 router. I'm a bit confused about what to do next.

You're checking the cost and results of your performance, and you're verifying how you're measuring its effectiveness.

You're paying for a 200 Mbps connection but only getting around 10 Mbps when connected through the router. You've checked with Speedtest.net and other services to verify the issue.

This setup uses a wired connection. Over wireless, such issues can occur due to interference from nearby devices, but with a wired link it should be fine.

Both tested results matched, consistent speed observed in both.
