so since got upgraded from 100mbps to 500mbps like 1~2 week ago,

i've been testing my speed everyday. (wanted to do more tests to make sure and since that time wasnt official so didnt want to make my case. but now that its officially upgraded to 500mbps so i'm bringing it up)

So.. I'm always getting 300mbps DL max only on LAN.
Testing using S8 also gets me 300mbps on WiFi.

Upload speeds hover around 200mbps as well..

So my question is how/where can i fix to get the full 500mbps.
Using stock router given by Time (DIR850)

Model Name: DIR-850L Hardware Version: B1 Firmware Version: 2.07

Sorry, just came back from office.
Already PM-ed you.

Is it normal for upload speed to be faster than download?
My dload always hit around 250Mbps max... but the upload can go up to 400Mbps.
I am the only one using the broadband and yet, the download speed doesn't exceed the upload...

Do I have to change any setting on the C1200?

which firmware did you update to?
i am running FW2.1..
only get 400mbps once, then avg is like 350 avg with cat6 LAN connect directly to the router 850L

Label on the bottom of the router got

Yes, but that didn't worked.

another problem with upgraded speed > bit-torrent in full speed causing HDD usage @ 100%... Need SSD to fully utilized BT in full speed

Or you can try the password, TIMEXXXX (where XXXX is the last 4 alphanumeric of the router MAC ID, which is printed on the sticker underneath)

Is upgrading the firmware of the Archer C1200 safe?



Crap. I am so dumb. username/password is literally printed underneath. I even took a picture for the serial

Thanks

I am using 3x3. I already share out ii average around 690mbps

hi, how to do it?

just by phone call will do?

I haven't been home in a few months, so still haven't upgraded from the basic DIR-850L.

Don't have someone with an Archer C7 for me to try out before purchase.

My needs are mostly 80% wired. Wifi is only about of 20% importance.

More concerned with whether the router Gigabit ports can sustain whatever the BTU/modem is delivering.

jjj2 yeapch01 hiiii the rm99 new plan right.. if wanna sign up what is needed? Condo supports time fiber..

Like that i think better use wire now.

Wait for ac802.11ax router release next few months.

Those new standard ax can 1gbps over wifi no problem but the product will only get popular next year.

Ax router USD 350 above. Somemore no news on ax receiver.

But I think latest CPU will integrate ax into it. Ax Lai liao

Via lan cable yes. Via WiFi no. Think 5GHz caps out at something like 800+mbps

Hi SilentVampire,

Thanks for your recommendation for the C2300.

However, since we can get a D-Link DIR-882 from Time for only RM550 and free installation, should I get this DIR-882 instead of the C2300?

In your list of compatible routers, you have listed the D-Link DIR-882 can achieve up to 800mbps but the product features in Time selfcare only shows "Achievable speeds of up to 500Mbps over WiFi". (please refer to attachment).

What is your take on this bro?

Sorry for asking noob questions as I just want to make sure I am making the right decision before pulling the trigger.

Thanks in advance
