Slow internet speeds using DD-WRT of Tomato.

Is anybody else having trouble with their internet speeds when using DD-WRT or Tomato firmware? When I'm using my Netgear firmware I get 500 Mbps download and 40 Mbps for my upload. When I install DD-WRT or Tomato I only get 280 on my download.

Does anyone have a solution?

 

Tnx!

On advanced tomato you can

On advanced tomato you can enable CTF (cut through forwarding) and get all of your speed. The term for it is LAN to WAN throughput, and the only way to realize your full connection speed is with it enabled. I have gigabit internet and get around 900 mb/s with CTF enabled. From what I understand, it is NOT available on DDwrt builds, including kongs mod.

I know this is an old thread,

I know this is an old thread, but I'm seeing a similar issue as the original poster:

R7000 running AdvancedTomato v1.28. Only seeing about 94mbps vs. the gigabit we're paying for. I've tried with CTF enabled, and still no joy.

Any other ideas?
