Hi so basically I have had the RT-AC86U for a while now and its been pretty good helped me out a lot.
Although its now started to cap my download speeds with ethernet not through the WIFI signal of the router.
Basically I pay for 1000mbps and I get around 950mbps when all is working fine on ethernet but recently it has been doing an issue where it just caps itself at 80/90mbps through the ethernet. It used to do this but I found it was when it needed a router firmware upgrade it would do it so upgrading the firmware fixed it. But now a days it just does it without a firmware upgrade being available.
I can fix this however by restarting the router but this happens so often that its not viable to keep doing it.
I have turned QoS off as this caused similar issues in the beginning and also turned the firewall off but I have no idea why it keeps doing it or how to fix it permanently.
This only happens for download speeds also the upload speed always stays the same as I get whenever.
TLDR:
Router caps download speed randomly, can fix with a restart of router but not viable and want a more permanent fix if possible.
Thank you anyone that can help!
