Google Fiber with ICX 7150 and 510 APs

Question

I just upgraded to google fiber and am currently running a Netgear Nighthawk as the router. I am only getting 300mbps down and up. From looking at the specs the 510 AP should be able to handle 867 Mbps up. Is there a recommended router that works better with Ruckus? When wiring everything in to the ICX 7150 is there a particular port that the internet should come in on? I currently have the AP's in the first 3 ports. Thanks for any help.

Hi @pir8sfan

Thank you for the response and the update.

This may be due to a defective ethernet cable. Please check with different ethernet cables by connecting to any 1 in-12 ports on the Switch.

Please check and let me know.

Thank you again for your patience and understanding.

Best regards,

Thta is helpful, is there a setting that needs to be adjusted to make sure direct wire is getting the gigabit speed? I tested directly at the port on my third floor plugged into the ICX7150 port number 8 and I am only getting 98MBPS down even though in the same room through wireless I am getting 300MBPS down.

Greetings!!!

Thank you for contacting RUCKUS Lennar Home Community.

Thank you for the information you shared.

As per the case description, I understand that you need assistance in setting up RUCKUS devices.

Yes, the RUCKUS ICX-7150-C12P Switch works with any Router/Modem-Router combo devices for higher speeds.

You must plug Router/Modem-Router’s or any device's ethernet plugs into any 1 in-12 ports of the RUCKUS ICX-7150-C12P Switch as described in the below guides.

Please refer to the short guide link below about how to connect the devices as a reference:
