[SOLVED] TP-Link TL-WR841N 300Mbps issue

[Vishal_7]

I got a TP-Link TL-WR841N 300Mbps . The problem is:
I have a FTTH connection with plan of 200Mbps. While recharging the plan the technician said my router will only throughput 100Mpbs max. I ignored him and went for 200Mbps plan [thinking this device supports 300Mbps] . To my surprise I found myself max out at 100mbps with TPlink router but if I use the LAN cable directly in my pc then I get 200Mbps[i believe its cz of the Gigabit Port Realtek® 8111H Gigabit LAN controller ?? ]
Can someone please explain as to what is wrong and how can i use full speed as I need wifi as well. the technician said to purchase some dual band wifi router which will work and give full speed.

Looks like the technician was right, the line, not the router itself, can only deliver 100mbps because maybe your area doesn't support the 200mbps yet

It's the router --- 300 mbps refers only to max speed over WiFi.

WAN & LAN ports however are 10/100 which will support only 100 mbps max.

You need a router with gigabit ports same as the gigabit Realtek LAN adapter in your PC.
