Hi All!

I'm fresh user of Archer C7 router and i'm quite suprised that it doesn't support jumbo frames on LAN GigE switch.

Old but decent TP-Link 1043ND supported jumbo frames up to 9k size. This is generally not a problem for intel-based wired gigabit cards (they could saturate 1Gig to Synology DS214 easily without killing CPU on MTU 1500) but is a real problem for all Realtek based GigE adapters as they don't perform well on MTU 1500 - I could only get about 500-600 Mbits/s to Synology DS214.

Is it possible to enable jumbo mtu on LAN side or is it hardware limitation of GigE switch inside Archer C7?

No!
ONLY TL-WR1043ND V1 supports it.
