Re: Gig1 with Hub 4 topping out at 645 Mbps
I got my 2017 MacBook Pro back from being repaired yesterday and this is more what I was expecting and hoping for…

Re: Gig1 with Hub 4 topping out at 645 Mbps
Sweet. I got a new Galaxy S21 yesterday and was looking forward to doing a speedtest hoping it would give me max speed but it still won't budge over 500mbits. I probably need a new router.

I'm happy with the speeds on my new phone.

Re: Gig1 with Hub 4 topping out at 645 Mbps
The specs of the phone (Xiaomi Poco F3) it says AC, it's also wifi 6, but I'll need a compatible wifi connection to test that. A hub 5 would be nice.

Re: Gig1 with Hub 4 topping out at 645 Mbps
Must be a limitation on my router then. I'll be getting a new one when i upgrade to 1gbit to handle the increased throughput.

Re: Gig1 with Hub 4 topping out at 645 Mbps
That will hopefully make a big difference. I'll probably have to wait for the next speed increase before they offer me the latest hub, I've no idea when that might be.

Just to say, mon General, my ASUS RX88U tops out at around 860 Mbps on my iPhone 11 Max Pro. The wired laptop connexion gets up to around 980Mbps. There's only 1 Gbps coming out of the Hub 4 and then there's whatever overheads imposed by modem mode and the router.
I haven't yet experimented with the Hub 4 in router mode - I will one day.

Re: Gig1 with Hub 4 topping out at 645 Mbps
I've just had my connection upgraded to Gig1 and also have the asus r7800 router.
I'm seeing a max of 750Mbit on speedtests though.
Is the only way to prove this to go back to router mode on the hub4 and do the same test?

Is your maximum the wired or wireless speed? I suspect it's wired because your router is AC for WiFi (not AX) and it's a Netgear model if it doesn't say ASUS on the front (there's no ASUS 7800).
As to your question - yes, a comparison with router mode will be informative.

Test wired on https://speedtest.samknows.com/ on your R7800 as another test

I've put the shub back in router mode and run the samknows test. It shows full speed to the shub, so I can only assume that the issue is with the r7800 
Time to shop for a new router then I guess.

good to know thanks. When they get around to making it available in my area I'll do some proper research and see which is the best option to go for. I have found a couple I like but I haven't got £450 for a router atm. I'll be looking at £250 max.
