My ISP upgraded my service from 30 to 60 Mbps and replaced the modem with an Arris TM822. A PC connected directly to modem gets well over 60 Mbps (actually peaked at 100) but thru the router only getting 30. Router is running DD-WRT latest firmware. The 4 LAN ports are 10/100 auto negotiation and the PCs connect at 100. I am not using the wifi on this router right now and radio is off. I don't see any place in the router settings to fiddle with LAN speed so I am left to assume this old Blekin just can't go that fast. I realize that 100Mbps is a theoretical maximum and in real use will never have that much usuable bandwidth but I'd think it could still get up to 60Mbps. Looks like I'll need a better router.

Re: Old Belkin 54g router bottlenecking speed
Everything is better with blue LEDs, apart from my Virgin Superhub...they really shouldn't use super in the name !
I can recommend the d-link DIR-615, happily runs DD-WRT, does N band, has 4 gigabit ports...and it's cheap.

Re: Old Belkin 54g router bottlenecking speed
My mistake, I use one at home, I thought it was gig ports.
I was given it by Virgin Media when i upgraded to the 100mbit connection, they told me it was gigabit. i don't transfer files between PCs do i wouldn't ever see the bottleneck.Last edited by diif; 10-15-2014, 01:39 PM.
