I installed 2 units and the initial iperf test was in the high 300 Mbits/sec. I got a third unit for another room also but it is not installed. Currently the speeds are down to 95 Mbits/sec. This is consistent and I have the two units connected with cabling in the house. I now have them connected to each other with a new length of rg6. I also swapped out the new unit with each of the two originals. Still the same results. I logged into both units and did a reboot and a restore. I have attached a pic of the rate chart. Still at around 95 Thank you if you can suggest any other ideas. Bill McAlister
Have you added the -w option?
Still kinda curious as to why my max speed is 300. All cables are good.
For iperf3, you can enlarge the default TCP window size to get the more accurate result.
You can test like this 'iperf3 -c x.x.x.x -w 2M'
After beating my head against the wall. I finally used a different patch cable. Go figure. Guess you get what you pay for from Monoprice. As per the test, the main computer is on a gb link to a Unifi switch and is definitely working right. I was using iperf3 from a laptop (gb also) to the main computer. It was the stupid cable from the laptop to the GoCoax unit. The last thing you try right? I guess I used a different cable for the initial check after install. The bad cable was brand new. Who knew? I should have realized that it looked like a 100 mb (95 or so) connection which is a lot of times a bad wire on a cable. This gocoax unit goes to another unify switch. Every device connected to the switch was getting the higher speeds but hard to tell when most of them are cameras and work just fine at 100mb. Just the laptop with the bad cable was screwed up.
Hi Bill,
You have a very good MoCA link. You should can get a much higher bandwidth.
Could you share the test method for the result? By speedtest.net or iperf?
If by iperf, we can give you some comments.
If by speedtest, maybe we can try different servers.
One important point, could you check the Ethernet link rate between your computer and the MoCA adapter? Make sure it is 1Gbps, not 100Mbps.
