Just recently upgraded to 1Gbps. Using Skyworth 2.5G modem and Asus be88u router. Not able to get past 1Gbps, it seem to stuck at max 950Mbps.. like there is a limit to it… can anyone help me figure out what else I’ve missed? Thanks.

I actually made a call to them yesterday and they said my speed is capped at 1.1Gbps. They even help me reset the line to refresh the connection. So I suspect one of the equipment is the bottleneck but unsure because the speed is consistently stay right below 950Mbps. I just bought a usb-c 2.5g Ethernet for testing later to see if that fixes it…

Blacktubi, what router did you use for your testing?

Well for my router I found a solution to it. It seems that Asus router speed negotiation is flawed with certain ONT cause it to lock up to the default 1Gbps port speed. To force it to negotiate higher speed, stick a switch with desired speed, eg 2.5Gbps switch to both router and ont then reboot.

This most last post worked for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/ASUS/s/7JigPGN9pG

I bought a tplink 5 port 2.5 Gbps switch to force the speed negotiation to higher than 1Gbps. Able to get beyond 950Mbps consistently now, consistent with what maxis said, speed capped to 1.1Gbps (including buffer speed) hovering at around 1070Mbps.

Don’t give up bro, keep blasting and request for it. I actually lodged a complaint to them after I solve the initial issue because at night the speed dips below 800 and day time it seem to be fine. The maxis guy came and noticed that the Skyworth modem is excessively warm. He pulled the report of modem behavior from tm side and said the modem kept spiking (not too sure what this means) but he said eligible for change to a new unit, which was what he did on last visit. He also said this is a common issue with the white Skyworth modem.
