Wired to the router I get:
Ok so we know wired is GOOD.
I have 27 devices connected wirelessly at the minute, that is made up of a mixture of:
multiple iPhones & MacBooks (5GHz), a PC (5GHz), several Apple HomePods (5GHz), Ring security devices (2.4 GHz), tvs (5 GHz), washing machine (2.5GHz), 3 sky boxes (satellite tv).
We have 1 MS, however almost everything is showing as connected to the MR, anything connected to the satellite is on 2.4 GHz.
Wired: Philips hue bridge, Tado bridge, ring bridge, sky master box.
Are there any specific wifi settings do you want?
2.4GHz channel is set to auto, 5GHz is set to 44, and its using WPA2-Personal security.
Try channel 1 and 40 on the MR.
I don't understand this question: Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Do you have home neighbors near by with wifi signals?
- our sky boxes have their own wifi network, otherwise there are no other wifi networks in the area. What happens if you turn these sky boxes and all bridged OFF? I'd turn off all wireless devices and test with just one Iphone or pad with the MR and see if speeds are still low.

- A quick reboot will fix the channel or wifi interference issue.
One device connected to wifi should give the speed you’re seeing on wire.
