Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
There is a more recent FW update that you can try:
If not, I would downgrade to v16.

While i am getting around 980MBPS download and 500MBPS uploads using wired connection.
However, while on Wifi 5Ghz i am getting max of 200 MBPS and while being connected on 2.4Ghz i am getting max of 10-20Mbps download speeds. This is irrespective of being connected to primary router of satellite. Same speeds if i am latched to either of the routers.
My Firmware version is V2.5.2.4
Hardware version: RBR 50
Backhaul status is Good.
Other status:
Daisy Chain: Enabled
Implicit Beamforming: Enabled
Mu-Mimo: Enabled
Fast Roaming: Enabled
Please advice how i can increase my wifi speeds.
Thanks you in advance.
