Hi gregs1,
Thank you for coming to the community for help. Is your C7000's firmware up-to-date with the most current version? Did you perform a factory reset on your device? I see that you also listed the Nighthawk AC1900. Where does that device come into play?
Please let me know. :]

Jason, My unit is the Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router
Model C7000v2. It is at latest firmware level. And I have tried the Reset. And I am sure I am using the least used channel etc. As I said in first post if I connect an EXTERNAL router to the C7000v2 we got good WiFi speeds. However when I use the C7000v2's internal router the WiFi 5G speeds are about half that of the external router. So the C7000v2's modem speed it good the the output of the router is cutting the speed approxitmately in half compare the an external router???? What can cause that?
