Hi eysher

Yes, tested using SpeedTest.net from all devices. I just downgraded the firmware back to 9.3.0.6 by taking it out of Insight then back again and I'm no longer experiencing slower transfer speeds.

I would highly recommend testing the Firmware in a Lab and comparing transfer speeds. Your other customers may not notice it since it doesn't really produce errors or network instability but I quickly noticed since I regularly run speedtest before and after making network changes.
