Thank you adir :- Can you link me to: "follow my procedure" James. Message 3 of Message 4 of Thank you both of you Message 5 of Can I risk doing this Live?
Message 6 of Message 7 of Makes no difference doing it my way or your way except that I waste a lot more time doing it your way. FYI, followed your method to the T with two different FVSG v2 and got the same low speeds that we saw upgrading the firmware the 'usual' way. Message 8 of Generally firmware upgrades doesn't take scientific way to get it done.
Message 9 of The FVSG v1 did back in January with the initial firmware release but hasn't since and each firmware update has only slowed it down more. Not a lot of good that first firmware does with all the bugs that needed to be ironed out. Why don't they down rate them to 35Mbps in the specs? Message 10 of I'm sure these routers are performing as best they can with the firmware they have not saying the firmware or hardware may not have a flaw or two or issues.
Have you considered the factor of more link aggregation. My office firewall has a white sheet stating that I will get a 5Gbps throughput. Do I fully ever expect to see it even if I had the service to run at that speed.
Absolutely not. Distance, location, line quality, environment, firewall rules, port redirects all come in to effect on what kind of performance you can expect to see. To both posters, If you are running a Vanilla config, then I would try downgrading your firmware for testing if possible I know the OP is miles away which makes it harder. I run one at home on my 30Mb and I do have rules setup and the area has grown in the past two years and I consistently see 20Mb average.
You could upgrade as Adit suggested, or downgrade and see if that has helped. Hope this bit helped. Message 11 of Blows your theory of everything out of the water. What petri dish environment would one ever get those claimed speeds at now? Maybe Netgear is full of it, yeah? Message 12 of So since I didn't say that some score right near the advertised speed or over it that I am stuffed? If I were to take you literal in what you posted, the fact that you can see speeds of Mbps when you have a 25Mbps connection is brilliant.
Take it and run. Wait, Did you mean that you have 50Mbps at your office? You only said the area so I'm not sure. So no, it does not blow my theory out of the water as you put it. If you're so unhappy with Netgear, go to Cisco,Juniper,Fortinet,etc. No one is forcing you to use a Netgear at your office hell, I don't. Buy a different router and see if the speed increases. If it does, shelve the G and keep it as a spare.
Or sell it and have a few pints. As for the SRX don't believe everything you read. IMHO its nothing more than a shiny paperweight. I have a seen so many issues with both the hardware and the firmware. Message 13 of This isn't an issue with just Netgear equipment--Cisco's rvG has had problems breaking the Mbs mark without an elusive beta firmware for years now. It's just the half-working nature of equipment in this price range.
If you want something real and reliable, you have to be ready to spend x the price of these units. Message 14 of SamirD wrote: This isn't an issue with just Netgear equipment--Cisco's rvG has had problems breaking the Mbs mark without an elusive beta firmware for years now.
What are you trying to say? It doesn't really make sense. What is the point of listing specs for a product? When you purchase a product, do you consider the specs when making your decision? Why after more than two years has a solution not been made? Why is a product that has had known short comings to its rated specs for over two years still being sold with specs it can not meet? Why are the level 1, level 2 and level 3 techs at netgear claiming that they will looking into the problem now that they have been made aware of it as if they never knew the problem existed?
I would think this is very misleading and not fair since it starts right from the pre-sales right through to warranty and tech support. Is it too much to ask for a solution that actually addresses the problem? Message 15 of All good questions. Why don't you ask Netgear and see what they say.
I'm curious as to what the response would be. I know there are a few Netgear employees on here, although most are end-users. Even asking directly you might not get an answer.
