cisco 1811 router internet speed slowdown

joel75941
Level 1
Level 1

Hi gurus,

 

I'm kind of at a loss here.  I have an older cisco 1811 router which is supposed to have 100mbit port capability.  I understand realistically it will get maybe 80mbit or so, and I've been actually getting 70mbit for a long time, as per speedtest.net.

 

In the past few days the internet has been upgraded (I didn't ask for it, but the speed increase came with the package).  If I connect the PC directly to the modem I get 200mbit.   However, through the router the same PC gets around 45mbit at speedtest.net.

 

I don't understand it.  I've disconnected everything that's attached to the router except for this one PC running the speed test, and it will not go above 45/50 max.  I've disabled everything extra from the router in case there's high CPU/memory usage, but it doesn't help.  See below for output of the running-config.  All I really have configured at this point is NAT/PAT.

 

Please advise, I'm not sure what's happening here, is the router just dying or something?

An 1800 router is not rated for 200 Mbps.  Probably the most is about 50 Mbps.  

Please refer to attachment.

I appreciate the reference to the performance pdf file, but as I said in my original post I was getting 70mbps less than a week ago.

 

Seems a bit odd that an increase in internet bandwidth slows my router down to 45-50mbps.

When you test your connect through the router, there arent any other devices plugged on your network?

Correct.  No other devices plugged into my network.  Just the one PC running the speed test.

Hello,

 

on a side note, and it probably won't make much of a difference, I don't see a default route in your router config, so add:

 

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 dhcp

The original poster asks if his router is dying or something. I do not believe that it is the case. Perhaps we could start with the output of show ip route. I believe that the suggestion about a default route is a good suggestion. I believe that the router has been operating with a default learned via DHCP and that it is good to have that specified in the configuration.

 

I wonder if there might be some issue about negotiation on the interface connecting to the ISP device. Could we get the output of show interface.

 

I am curious about the size of the arp table. Could we get the output of show arp.

Okay...I modified the output a little bit to hide the ip address/network.  Hope that's not an issue, I've include #sh ip route, #sh arp, and #sh int.


Router#sh ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP

I appreciate the feedback.  Every once in a blue moon I'll lose internet, and I think this might possibly be the reason for that.  Thank you, I've added it to the config.

 

But yeah....adding the line hasn't changed my speed.

Thanks for the output that I requested. I do not see anything in the show ip route, show arp, or show interface that explains the symptoms you are experiencing. I am guessing that there is something about the change of speed that is impacting your router but I am not sure what that is. When they changed the speed did they change out their equipment for new equipment or was it just reconfiguration of existing gear to change the speed?

No, nothing has changed....and just to give another update, earlier this morning I was getting 80mbit. 

 

I am so confused, I haven't changed anything in my config.  My PC isn't pulling any kind of updates/downloads/etc., and the direct connection to the modem is still 200mbit.  I've tried different speedtest servers, and the difference is only about 1-2mbit between any nearby connections.

 

Is there any kind of reasonable explanation for what's going on?  Is something maybe funky with the speed test?

 

Edit:  In case you don't believe me, I've attached 2 different speed tests.  One from yesterday (50mbit), and one from today.(80mbit).  Keep in mind these results were/are consistent after running multiple speed tests.

What's the router's CPU history look like, especially when it appears to top out?

Dear joel75941,
It's about the speed of your router's interfaces.
Check out:
Modem Interface: I think it's 1Gbps
Router Interface: 100Mbps
PC Interface: 1Gpbs

Connecting directly to the modem: you'll have a higher speed to test.
By connecting through the router, you will be limited by the speed of the interface.

I stand corrected, it looks like it is the speedtest server...

 

The nearby Sprint server is what's giving me 80mbit.  The other nearby servers are only giving me 50mbit.

 

I'm going to conduct some more tests later tonight without the router to see what kind of speeds I get.  Right now I'm hypothesizing that I might go beyond 200mbit on this Sprint server compared to the rest, but I really don't know what to expect anymore.
