Im struggling to find any evidence if the performance im seeing in my RUT X50 is normal or sub optimal.
I am simply questioning raw output via wired WAN,
I am on a PPPOE connection with standard MTU set (1500)
Software Flow offloading enabled.
No Firewall rules / NAT
No SQM
I am testing speed via the Teltonkia Speedtest package and externally connected to the X50 via wired 1Gbps LAN - speeds are consistently around the below mentioned.
I have a 900Mbps PPPOE Service which I see 900Mbps using the vendor router / fw.
Firmware version
RUTX_R_00.07.12
Kernel version
5.10.229
My question is am I ever likely to see more than ~450/480Mbps download due to the “horsepower” of the RUTX50?
Searching at google, using text " Router hardware capable of routing 900mbps over PPPoE "
Found a lot of explanations about high cpu usage for pppoe connections.
The RUTX50 have Quad-core ARM Cortex A7, 717 MHz cpu and the device don’t have what the engineers called a switch chip, like Marvell .
This is a summary of reason, why the RUTX50 cannot reach 900mbps under pppoe connection.
" The 88E6393X device, working in conjunction with a high performance ARMADA® network processing system-on-chip (SoC), can offload some of the packet processing activities so that the CPU’s bandwidth can be better focused on higher level activities. Data integrity is upheld, thanks to the quality of service (QoS) support across 8 traffic classes. In addition, the switch IC presents a scalable solution. The 10 Gbps interfaces provide non-blocking uplink to make it possible to cascade several units together, thus creating higher port count switches (16, 24, etc.). "

“PPPoE IP passthrough WAN to LAN” means that a router will essentially “pass through” the IP address it receives from the ISP via a PPPoE connection on the WAN port, directly assigning that same IP address to a device connected to the LAN port, instead of assigning a separate internal IP address from its own pool; essentially allowing the LAN device to directly use the public internet IP obtained through the PPPoE connection.
