Hello! My name is Andreas and I have some problem with my router
I have a Asus WL500g-deluxe that limits my "internet speed" to 20mbit
I have 100mbit internet connection, i just upgraded and had 10mbit before and therefore didnt notice this problem
What I have tried is:
Update to the latest official firmware 1.9.5.0 (available from asus.com), but I´ve also found WL500gx_1.9.5.6_EN.rar on this great forum, official or not i dont know. Have not tried it yet though
My cables are working perfectly since if I use them in my home network i get 80-100mbit (through the router of course). Tried one of those cables between the router wan and internet, no go.
Tried DMZ, disabel firewall, reset router, leave it without power for 30min, bandwith limiter is off, tried from three different computers (and therfore three different cables), and if I connect any of the computers directly to internet i get 80-100mbit while transfering files.
And somehow sometimes it blocks ports that are supposed to be open, even
if the pc hasn´t changed IP (DHCP), if i just wait it will work again.
And sometimes the router interface feels like im using 14.4 modem, it works but its really really slow.
Is my router damaged and should be replaced, or what do you think, am I missing something? I really hope so
ahh yes i have tried different duplex modes, no go
Regards
/Andreas
