Not getting full speed using LAN

[amit3259]

Hi, I have a 200 Mbps Airtel fiber connection, I am getting full speed via wifi, but on using LAN cable I am getting around 94-95 Mbps. I have tried on different laptops (all supporting gigabit ethernet) using CAT 5e and CAT 6 cables. Also, I have tried using all the ports, speed remains the same. I was thinking to buy Deco M4, but this issue will make the investment not worthwhile. Anyone facing a similar situation or knows the fix? Thanks a lot.

Router model: Nokia G-2425G-A

is there a setting in the Airtel Nokia device to set the port speed to 1000m full duplex instead of just 100m ?

There is no setting to select the link speed manually in the Airtel Nokia router.

UPDATE: Hard resetting the router worked, I am getting 1 Gbps link speed now.

Your ethernet port supports maximum of how much speed?

@nishantt6969, it supports gigabit speeds.

Am having the same issue. Wifi from the router gives 200 mbps whereas when I connect a short Lan cable to the out of the router the speed is 90-95 mbps! It’s quite a sham! Earlier they would blame the internal wiring which is of high grade Cat 6.

@babakhanna There must be some issue either with the LAN cable you are using or the device's lan port. Make sure it's a gigabit port in order to receive full 200 Mbps speed. If that doesn't work, try using a different lan cable(cat 5E and above) or a different device with a gigabit port.
