Model: TL-ER6020  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.2.0 Build 20160825 Rel.45884s

 

TL-ER604W

 

Hardware Vesion TL-ER604W v2.0

 

1.2.0 Build 20160825 Rel.45884s

 

 

 

I have a 50Mbps down 20Mbps up cable connection.

 

This router does not allow me to set the upstream or downstream bandwidth beyond 1,000,000 Kbps on the WAN1 panel which should be plenty.

 

I have the "Disable Bandwidth Control" radio button selected.

 

I do a speed test and I get around 8Mbps.

 

if I set the Down Stream bandwidth on the WAN1 panel to 500,000 (half the max) and run a speed test I get around 4Mbps...  half the speed at 1,000,000 Kbps. ..

 

What am I missing?  Is there some setting I am not seeing.

 

Any help would be appricated.

Dear @mcg1103,

 

This router does not allow me to set the upstream or downstream bandwidth beyond 1,000,000 Kbps on the WAN1 panel which should be plenty.

 

1,000,000 Kbps ≈ 1000Mbps (1M=1024Kbps). I don't know why you need to set the bandwidth beyond 1000Mbps on the WAN.

 

If your ISP provides 50Mbps down 20Mbps up bandwidth, then the upstream/downstream bandwidth can be set 20480Kbps/ 51200Kbps.

 

For the LOW speed issue, you may reset the router to default settings for checking if the router has been working fine before.
