I have GB going into 1 port, then the rest are only 100Mb. However, I can only push 100Mb through the switch, backhaul is GB. I do not see an option anywhere to select the uplink port, 1GB should distribute each 100Mb port equally right?
wow 25 views and no replies?
You should be able to get 1Gbps through a 1Gbps link, yes.
I don’t understand what your question is. How are you testing? What are you testing? What are you expecting to see when testing, and what are you seeing instead?
okay I’ll re-phrase it again:
-I want 1GB uplink, to disperse 100Mb among 4 100Mb ports = 400Mb total
-What is happening with speedtest, is only 100Mb going out of the 1GB port. That is the whole point of having 1GB and 4 100Mb,
How EXACTLY are you testing that throughput?
You’re saying speed test - what speed test? What end points are involved? If all other ports on the switch are only 100Mbps and you’re testing from a 100Mbps host of course you won’t see more than 100Mbps. Are you running speed tests on more than one port at the same time? Are you sure whatever is on the other side of the 1Gbps link supports more than 100Mbps? A complete network diagram of everything involved in the speed test with single link speeds verified might be helpful.
RB250Gs can push more than 100Mbps easily.
I have 2 Mikrotik RB/800 Behind the GB Port, both linked at GB, it goes
Port1 GB - RB/800, RB/800
Port2 100Mb - RB/493AH
Port3 100Mb - RB/433AH
When I do speedtest, I test from RB/800 to Port2, RB/493AH, speedtest UDP caps out at 98Mbps
^ while above speedtest is running, I use 2nd RB/800 and run another speedtest to Port 3, RB433AH, speedtest slows to 7Mbps, should also peak to 90+mbps correct? I would be pushing 2 seperate speedtest streams from the GB port, to 2 different 100Mb ports, but only get AGGREGRATE of 100Mb, should be able to push 2 seperate 100mb streams
I got nothing then. It all sounds like it should work.
My RB250GS is right now as I’m typing this pushing about 600Mbps because I’m copying a large file. That speed is restricted by the hard drives involved, I’ve pushed 1Gbps though it. The switch is definitely capable of what you’re trying to do. I’d be willing to bet that something in the network negotiated a 100Mbps link where you didn’t expect it to.
Maybe try to turn off auto-negotation and set static 1GB.
Have you checked “Speed” status at link tab?
yes, one port is at 1GB, and the other 4 are at 100Mb
