![]() ![]() Traffic Filtering ie: keyword filtering, URL filtering etc, etc. The only other item I can think of at the present time is to disable the following in the router: ![]() In terms of the router, is it set to receive its WAN IP address automatically or have you set that to a preferred IP address? That shouldn't be an issue, but, just pointing out the difference in the modem's operating mode. In Bridge mode, the router has to deal with these. In Gateway mode, the modem filters these out. You can probably get several hundred if not several thousand of these within a minute or two. This is a never ending stream of data transmitted by the CMTS to determine what MAC address or IP address belongs to which unit. One main difference between Gateway mode and Bridge mode is the ARP Requests that the modem or router has to process. What was your previous data rate that you were using prior to upgrading? Was it above 100/10, and if so, were you seeing the higher data rates thru the router? Were you using a different Rogers modem previously or a modem from another ISP? The suggested solution was to update the firmware to the latest version available, but the originating poster didn't post the results, so, no one knows if that solved the problem. Looking around, I came across a post regarding slow data rates for your router. If so, try another port to see if the same problem exists with another port. There is always the possibility of a port controller problem, which could definitely slow the data rate thru that port. Its a fair question to look at that port LED in both modem modes to ensure that the modem port is running at 1 Gb/s. In both cases, when the modem is running in Gateway mode or Bridge mode, that port LED should be flashing amber, indicating a 1 Gb/s interconnect link rate with the router. As " Green means 100 Mbps and Amber equals 1000 Mbps link speed." Actually green is 10/100 Mb/s. To clarify one remark from have look at the back of the modem, specifically the connected port LED. ![]()
