Satellites are eliminated from the equation. Wireless test is from within 10' of router.
No other wireless channel overlaps, but with the issue also on wired, not a concern again.

Is Armor enabled by chance?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last update?

What speeds do you see with a wired PC?
What wireless device are you speed testing with?

With a fresh router reboot, 430ish. Same as wireless after restart. At some random interval later, wired and wireless struggle to attain 100, usually high 80's. Fresh router restart, 400+ is back.
Speed tests performed with a phone, a tablet, 3 laptops. All matching results.
