XR1000 - Not getting full speeds during speed tests (speedtest.net)
Without the router in the loop, I consistantly get 940Mbps down and 920Mbps up. With it between my computer and the ONT I get 760ish down and 780-820 up. This is with Congestion Control at 100%.

I added it as a games console. No settings changed

How are you measuring your speeds, using a third party application like speedtest.net, or Connection Benchmark?
I'd suggest doing both and comparing the two results.

Sppedtest.net (many servers)

They are slower on both speetest and the internal router test.

That seemed to get me pretty close. How often will I need to do do this? I have never set anything manually on the distribution
