@OP I assume you've tried doing a multithreaded speedtest (thinkbroadband one) or a download that utilizes multiple connection, usenet for example?

Sorry, so you are getting the expected throughput? Your previous post said you weren't getting the speeds you expected but your latest says you are. I only made the suggestions as I thought you weren't getting the speeds - I must have misunderstood.

The router CPU might be what's bottlenecking you.

Amber light on Openreach modem port is correct - those only have 100Mb ports.

I don't use application load balancing. Flows tend to stick to ports anyway.

Mine works okay but will be getting retired at some point in the not too hugely distant future.

Flow control isn't related to this article, flow control works at Ethernet layer.

CPU says 3% usage but that never changes - if that's what you mean.?

Yes - mine runs pretty hot at times, however you may have version 2 of the hardware while I have version 1.

PPPoE takes its toll on the device.
