Are you testing over the 2.4ghz or the 5ghz?
2.4ghz is a much slower network than 5ghz.
And the MR systems do band steering so its not something you can just "choose" to be on the 5ghz.

what wired speed do you get from the router?
What speeds do you get over 2.4ghz?
What modem is it connected to?
Have you checked its internet connection statistics to see if its connecting at gigabit speeds?
How do I display Internet port statistics on my Nighthawk router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support

With the Netgear EAX15 Wi-Fi 6 Mesh Extender ($129.99), all you have to do is plug it into a wall outlet and configure it with a mobile app to get wall-to-wall Wi-Fi 6 connectivity.
