PureFibre Modem - Networking
When the PureFibre Modem is installed by the technician is only one of the LAN ports activated? I have my own internal Ethernet network and would like to use more than one port on the modem to limit t...
- Was hoping that plugging directly into another of the LAN ports would keep speed up above 900mbOk, I need some clarification here please. If you are indicating that your Wi-Fi speed connection is showing at 100Mbps on a wireless link, this would not be out of the realm of possibilities depending on what protocol it is connecting at.Most Wi-Fi connection speed will be much slower that a hardwired ethernet connection to say a desktop/laptop computer.If you are indicating that a wired connection to a desktop/laptop is down around 100mbps speed, then my assumption would be that device has a 10/100 Network interface in the device, and not a 10/100/1,000 or 1Gbps network interface.If you find this post useful, please give the author a "Solution", or mark as "Kudo", if it solves your problem, thank you very much.

Some users have also found that using third party routers with fibre can result in slower wired speeds. No idea why but there are a few past discussions on the forums here about it.
