Yeah i think i figured out that the router has like a low power mode or something so it only pushes 100mbps through that port and i cant even get into the router settings because cox made the password something different that no one knows and the owner doesnt want me to do a factory reset on it to get into the settings.
-
alright it says 100mbps is there any way to make it show up as 1000mbps the motherboard specs says it can be 1000
-
im using speedtest by ookla but the wifi is showing higher then 100 so i dont think its that
-
UPDATE** Just figured out that the Ethernet cable is a CAT6 not sure why im ony getting 100mbps because both router and motherboard state that they have 1000mbps speeds
-
Yeah that makes sense just havent seen this much of a loss before in speeds over wifi
-
The wifi is 802.11ax i believe and the 100 mbps is over ethernet its like 350 over wifi

Its a computer with a b450 tomahawk whould have no problem with gigabit (Also Tested on an MSI gl63 9sdk Laptop)

So my friend is paying for gigabit internet through cox, they have a technicolor-cgm4141 which claims to be a gigabit Modem/Router however they are only getting 100mbps through ethernet and about 300mbps over wifi on 5 GHz from about 10 feet away. The ethernet cord may only be able to push 100mbps not sure If its a cat5 or not (Most likely, is she bought it from best buy) however i feel like they should at least be getting better wifi speeds though. The Modem/Router was recommended and installed by cox for gigabit so not sure where the problem lies. Any info would help, Thank you!
