Model: Archer VR2100v

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.8.0 0.9.1 v009e.0 Build 230705 Rel.12787n

I am in Aus, i have Fibre to the premise connection 250/50 mb/s
I get throttled to 90 mb/s with the modem, no QoS or anything enabled impacting, LAN connection. Not 70mbs not 100, betweenn 88-92 mb/s steady every speed test no matter the time of day or device. Something is limiting it.

I restart modem, i get an hour of 250 down and then BAM back to 90 down and i can't determine why. The only resolve is a hard restart and it fixes it. I have upgraded firmware, upgraded to all cat6 cables, tried with and without wifi, tried even enabling QoS and configuring to a test device but still the same results. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi@tekneeky,

Thank you for contacting our community.

Please tell me that are all wired and wireless connections are suffering slow speeds?

If all wired and wireless connections are suffering slow speeds, please review the following troubleshooting steps:
1. Login to the web-based interface of the modem and take a screenshot of the Status page. And also check the DSL Status.
2. Connect only one device to the TP-Link modem via cable and do the speedtest three times without doing any high-bandwidth activities like P2P downloads. Take screenshots as well.
3. Check the wired link speed and take screenshots. Please refer to this FAQ: How to check the associated/link speed on a wired client
4. Send here screenshots of Status page, speedtest results, and link speed.
