Prosafe gigabit switch gs105, speed issues

Ever since I started using this, the devices I have plugged into it have frequent drops in download and upload speed. Before using the splitter I was able to get up to 300 download speed on average, but while using the switch, I end up at 60. If I restart my router it will go back to 300 but only temporarily. After a few days of use it’s back down to 60 and I have to restart again.

    With regard to this, kindly check the settings configured on your router.  If ever the firmware of your router is not yet the latest version, I suggest you to update it then observe if the same problem will occur.
