Hi all as the title says I’m on the 1.2Gig Pro+ package but I’ve never got over 920Mbps on a wired Ethernet connection I’m using a cat 8 Ethernet cable also tried cat 7 Ethernet cable and still nothing more than 920Mbps. I’m using the Yayzi provided router Qos is not enabled on the router settings I’ve closed all VPN applications totally and disabled firewalls and still can’t get anything more in speed I’m doing the test on a computer with a 2.5Gbps connection card and also made sure it’s configured to handle the max speed up to 2.5Gbps on the settings so I’m at a loss. Anyone else faced this issue or any ideas ?
How are you testing the speeds? Some services will be slower than others
Hey there welcome!
What speedtest site are you using?
Give the following a try:
You might also find that Desktop apps give the best results with less overhead
Can you also confirm that you are seeing a link speed on the network adapter for 2.5G? If not make sure you are plugged into LAN 4
Love the drawing Nigel! Very artistic
Or if you are using Speedtest.net, use the ‘Community Fiber London’ server as that can handle the speed.
Its just the 4th LAN port on the Yayzi Router. WAN and LAN4 are the only 2.5G ports. I think.
What do you mean! Amazon sold me CAT10 the other day!
Came with a butler that runs my bath.
Thanks I wasn’t aware of the Lan 4 port being the only 2.5Gbps port swapped it over and now getting 1220Mbps download. My error thanks for everyone’s reply’s
You are very welcome, enjoy your Yayzi service
Awesome news.
Yeah, it does happen
Glad to see you are now getting the speed you want!
Could you mark that reply as the solution in case anyone else gets this crop up?
Might be worth getting a simple 2.5GB switch so you can make full use of the speeds!
yes no problem
Enjoy your service! Feel free to drop by if you have any further quetions
Ah I see, recon CAT12 might actually be better for that!
CAT15 is where it’s gonna be at, it’s rumoured to carry 100gb/s via copper
