Whenever I see speeds less than 100mbps, I wonder if its connected together at gigabit speeds.
You can check that in the wan port statistics page.

I'd check that to see if your echolife and MR70 are connecting together at full speed.
There wasn't a ton of details (and I truly didn't look that hard) on the echolife but it does show 4x ethernet ports on it. Always makes me curious if its doing any traffic inspection or anything like that. Might be worth opening a post on their forums to see if anything needs to be done with it when changing routers. (not saying that's an issue but they'd be more familiar with it).
Hi, i am just try to connect with your procedure Modem > LAX20 > MR70
The wired download speed is okay at the location between Modem > PC, Modem > LAX20 > PC and Modem > LAX20 > MR70 to PC (download speed almost at 300Mbps ~500Mbps
But the wifi download speed is still remaining below 80Mbps
The attachment is the status of MR70 during connection of LAX20 to MR70
What is the brand and model# of this> Modem >? That the LAX is connected too?
Have you tried Modem > MR70 configuration?
Modem: EchoLife HG8040H5
This is my original question of Wifi download speed is too low when MR70 is connected to Modem directly
I tried Modem > MR70 (Wifi download speed is around 80Mbps when wired download speed is 9xxMbps)
Then i have LAX20 which wifi speed can go up to around 1xx - 2xxMbps, and someone in this forum tell me try to connect Modem > LAX > MR70
So, I tried Modem > LAX20 (Wifi off) > MR70 (the Wifi download speed is still around 80Mbps when wired download speed is 9xxMbps)
Is the speed at the MR wirelessly and ethernet speed results?
What brand and model# is the devices your speed testing with?
