BT Full Fibre 900 with Draytek 2862ac

silverman102 — Thu, 28 Oct 2021 11:53:54 GMT

I've just upgraded from BT Fibre 300 to BT Full Fibre 900. I am using a Draytek 2862ac router (broadband on WAN2) and this worked fine, getting around 300Mbs.

However. after the upgrade to 900Mbs, the Draytek is only getting around 380Mbs. The Business Smart Hub 2 gets the full 900+Mbs but I would like to remain with the Draytek. Any ideas on improving the Draytek performance?

Thanks in advance

You will need to buy a new router - that model is only rated up to 400Mb/s for the firewall:
