[TP LINK 1043ND v1] Slow download/Upload OK

[bejker1989]

Hi everyone

I have not too old router TP LINK 1043ND v1 with gigabit ports LAN and WAN.
My internet speed should be around 600/50 mbps.

On wired connection I get only 120-130 mbps of download speed.
On WiFi about 35-45 mbps.
Upload speeds in both cases are OK...about 45-50mbps.

I tried to update firmware (offical one, not OpenWRT) - no result
I tried also change my ethernet cables (cat.5e) - still no result
Factory reset didn't help either.
QoS is off.

Connecting directly modem to my PC gives me 610/50 mpbs - so nothing wrong with my PC.
I borrowed also another router (ASUS rt-ac68u) and it works very well...600/50 mbps.

I have no other idea what could be wrong...except that probably I need to buy a new router to get my full speed.

But before that...Maybe you will have some magical ideas what else I could try...
I would appreciate your help Thanks guys!

If that's your only source of wifi you will need to get new equipment either way if you want wireless users to get faster speeds.

I'd recommend a router (not a wireless one) and an access point like Unifi. A router only won't be very expensive.

The problem isn't only with WiFi...it has relevance to the wired connection as well....
I was thinking that maybe there is some magical setting in administration panel that blocks higher speeds...but I tried everything...and nothing helps

Any ideas?
