Netgear router

[LewisJB]

So, not sure if this belongs here or not but here we go. I’ve had a Netgear Nighthawk R8000 router for about a year and I’ve noticed that my speeds are constantly being throttled whenever I turn a device on. QOS and Netgear armour are both disabled, and I have made sure the Speedtest part of the router has higher speeds than I should get. I have noticed that when I turn my computer on in the morning, my speeds drop by about 100mbps, and to fix this I have to enable and disable the QOS feature (strange fix). Just wondering if anyone has an fixes for this? I am running the router on the latest firmware as of 16/02/2021

my personal fix for netgear routers:

 

 

or you just return it to Amazon - - they took mine no questions asked and gave me a full refund (after more than a year of me owning this pos) they're probably already used to it... 

 

 

ps: mention "not enough ram" and "clueless customer service" I did... I think that's why they didn't ask any questions ~

I will definitely look into returning it then. Thinking about getting a router from Netduma, any experiences with them?
