Hi guys,
I have installed the latest firmware 30731 and it works perfect.
However i am still getting maximum speed of 50 mbps, although i have 75 Mbps from the ISP.(tested on LAN)
Which settings should i change to get the 75 MBPS?
Thanks

50-60Mb/s is very good WAN speed for Dir-615 I used to have one and that was its max WAN speed if you want better speed, than get better router something like TP link 1043v2 or Dir 862l they trade quite cheap but have better CPU and better radios , if you have more cash get R7000 still a good value at the moment but it's also future proof... _________________ Atheros

I use DIR-615H1 with a LAN b/w of 90Mb/s (Wifi is more than 70Mb/s) on a 100Mb/s-connection. Information from D-Link was that this router has a WAN to LAN througput of 90Mb/s. That's what I get.
With a TC7200 from my ISP LAN to DIR WAN I got full speed, with a Ubee also LAN to DIR WAN I only got 20 to 40 Mb/s. Installing a Gbit-switch between the Ubee and the DIR I also have full speed; same configuration! That's why I asked for your ISP modem/ router.
So scrap your stuff and invest money or try to analyze.
Good luck!

well there are many factors that play role but in my case old firmware, static IP from my ISP via RJ45 cat5se with
80mb/s i used to see not more than 70Mb/s and most of the time it was 60 and my wi-fi settings ware 300Mb/s
on AES WPA2 encryption, NG mixed, short preamble, Short GI
channel 11 + lower, Canada domain and it was H2 H/W model flawless unit with a good radio.For its time it was a not bad unit but i didn't have a 1 Gbit Switch _________________ Atheros
