Could you please go to QoS and under Bandwidth allocation, hit 'Reset Allocation' and make sure that Share Excess is enabled from the three-line menu?
After that, retest your speeds and let me know if you're still having the same issue.

okay i tested this and i was running speeds at 550 but why isnt the 2.4 getting full speeds either?

Was 'Share Excess' previously disabled in Bandwidth Allocation? If so, that's why the speeds were reduced.
What exact speeds are you now getting through 2.4 and 5GHz?
- Tots343Feb 08, 2022GuideNo, share excess was not disable.
5ghz averages 500
2.4ghz averages 90
