No matter what I do, I keep having issues trying to get my full bandwidth on my router. If I directly connect to the modem I can get like 200/20 but with the router I'm lucky to get 100/10. Not only that but the speed isn't even consistent, it has a lot of fluctuation.

You have a 50 dollar router (sometimes cheaper when on sale) running third party firmware. That's to be expected. If you want high performance, buy Cisco-grade gear. You can also use a PC and turn that into a router.

ar9344 should take that speed, that looks more like a switch using 100mbps instead of gigabit, issue.. LATEST FIRMWARE(S) BrainSlayer wrote: we just do it since we do not like any restrictions enforced by stupid cocaine snorting managers

How can I check if it's using 100mbps or gigabit? The cable should be fine, I was able to hit over 100mbps with it hooked to my computer to the modem and it registered as a gigabit connection.

Ran top during a speed test. sirq maxed out at a little less than 50% and idle seemed to make up almost all of the rest (typically at least a little larger than 50%)

I couldn't make out anything related to the switch link speeds. The only notable thing I found was tons of "Failed to stop TX DMA" messages that you replied to in the other thread.

So what's the thought now? It's hooked up with a full gigabit line. So what might be causing the slowdown?

It shouldn't be. I just recently did a full 30/30/30, upgrade, never turned on QoS.

My speed instantly dropped from 100/20 pre-QoS to like 12/4. Disabling returned my speed back to my normal speed with router.
