I've set up multiple routers over the years by a handful of companies. If there was ever a problem, typically there was always as solution to be found on the internet. Never have I had so much trouble with a router that I've been forced to register on forums and seek support, but being at my wits-end, here I am.
Background:
Boss wanted a new router for some reason, so I was tasked with setting it up. I set up the previous router without any issue. We were sitting on ~100 Mbps with the older router. After running through the setup and messing around with settings on the RV320, we were only able to get up to ~15 Mbps. None of the solutions online I found worked. There was one I didn't try that suggested adding switch between the modem and the router, but even if it did work, that really shouldn't be the solution to this.
Chances are I just missed a thing or 2 (there are a lot of settings), but at this point I don't even know where to look.
- Old Router - Netgear R7000 Wireless Router
- Modem - Not Sure (I can find out, but this shouldn't be an issue right? ISP is AT&T)
- IP is static and I've entered all values used in the previous router for IP, Subnet, DNS1 & DNS2
- SIP ALG disabled
- Set to "Gateway"
- I increased the downstream bandwith for WAN1 & 2 from 10,000 kb/s to 100,000 kb/s
- Only using WAN 1
- I tried disabling the firewall. Currently it's on as it didn't affect the speed.
- Firmware is v1.4.2.15 (most recent I believe)
- Path of data is Internet > Modem > RV320 > My Computer. We have access points hooked up to the network, but for the sake of testing I have removed them to minimize the variables to account for.
As I said, at this point I really have no idea. Do I need to find a way to disable WAN2? I set it so that WAN1 was the default. Do I maybe need to set everything up on WAN2 and ignore 1?
