Getting Slow Internet Speeds with Archer AX73
I've found several similar posts, some of which offer a "solution" that is anything but. We have an Archer AX73 that was purchased and entered service in February 2022. In the wake of a service outage we discovered this router is severely restricting our internet speeds. Speeds achieved are typically in the 90-93 mbps range, while we are paying for much higher speeds from our provider.
Using the web interface I noticed the WAN ethernet port is labeled 100mbps, and can find no means of changing this setting.
I purchased a new Cat 6 ethernet cable and installed at the time of setting up this router. T-shooting, I've swapped other Cat 6 cables and Cat 5 cables, all producing the same result, ie, slow speed. Firmware is current.
When I bypass the router I see speeds of up to 350 mbps or higher. Connect the router to the modem, and the speed throttles down below 100 mbps.
Clearly it's the router.
For a device that advertises its claimed capability to deliver "warp speeds", I'm much less than impressed, to say the least, and am actively shopping for a replacement.
Are there any other possible true solutions, or does this Archer AX73 advertise promises it cannot fulfill?
