Problem solved.
Disabled the Killer app software that Dell loads. Once removed, speeds are back to full down and up (800 Mbbs for both).

So issue appears to be desktop computer.
Of course, yes. Time to update the network adapter drivers

If I disconnect cable on desktop and use via Wifi, I get 350 down / 350 up.
Soon time for some more decent WiFi client, Wi-Fi router and/or access point tech?
Appreciate the input. After taking switch out of the equation (desktop directly to router), can confirm the desktop networking is the issue.
Desktop is from 2019. Updated all drivers from Dell site. Restarted, but still have same issue with decent down / up on wifi and excellent down / poor up (5 Mbbs) hardwired.
Do you think a new network card would solve the issue? May give that a shot.
