Re: Speed slowly gets to normal on speedtest
Yes I know that it is an extreme privilege to have access to such high speed I'm just trying to get as much as what I'm paying for. I forgot to note that I am not using the second router in this situation as a replacement to the modem. I have a long ethernet cord that is connected to the modem, and then an ethernet cord from the second router to my computer. I do this so that I can also have Wi-Fi. Which is why I turned off bridge mode. The modem I have is the T3200M. Something I found that was super strange was when I plugged in the ethernet cord directly from the modem to my computer is I had a different IP address, but when I connected with Wi-Fi to the modem I had the same IP as before. The ramp up thing isn't really an issue anymore after I restarted the second router and switched out the ethernet cord, I very much appreciate the advice though! Thank you12KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Speed slowly gets to normal on speedtest
I don't think browser was a problem, I was using chrome. I turned port1 bridge on in the telus modem settings, and now I can't access the telus modem webpage on my second router network, is that normal? I also restarted my router and used a different ethernet cord and the speed still ramps up but it's signifcantly faster and I hit the maximum speed by the end of the speedtest. However when I plug in the ethernet cord directly from the modem to the computer, there is almost no ramp up and I believe it hits the maxium speed faster. Is there a problem with the second router that's bridging the modem to my computer?12KViews0likes5CommentsSpeed slowly gets to normal on speedtest
Hi, Something odd that I have noticed was that whenever I do a speedtest, my download and upload speed will slowly ramp up to the speed I pay for. Before when I started the speedtest it would go straight to top. I currently have the gigabit plan, and the modem is plugged straight into my router then computer via cat5e. https://gfycat.com/harshilliteratecottontail Here is a video of itSolved12KViews0likes15Comments
