Hi,
I have changed my old Mikrotik to Asus-RT-BE58U a week ago, updated to the latest firmware. Port 1 (2.5G) connected to the modem (1G), dual wifi disabled, UPnP, VPN's and most of logs disabled, all 4 cpu's load is very low.
When measuring the speed by QoS/Internet Speed through the web interface, I am strangely getting lower speed values from the router/QoS/internet_speed compared to the measurement by the laptop (speedtest.net) connected to the router's wifi. No matter QoS is enabled/disabled.
E.g.
router QoS/internet_speed 20Mps
Laptop on wifi 150Mps
Laptop on cable 150Mps
Laptop without router (directly in modem) 150Mps
I am not sure whether the router is slowing my connection down, but overall experience at home is worst than my previous mikrotik (which died after 20yrs). Looking at Bandwitch monitor does not help, the overall values do not correspond to anything real (even the TV streaming the film shows almost no Rx/Tx).
Why is the Asus router showing lower speed than a laptop connected through the wifi to the internet ? Is there anything special I am missing in the setup and/or anything I can do to make it working "as expected" ?
Thank you.
