I'm paying for 950 down and 500 up, but on the XR300 I'm getting around 50 down and 50 up (both on WiFi and ethernet).The ISP provided router was able to do 200 down and 200 up on WiFi, and 800+ down and 450 up on ethernet (only reason why i changed was because I wanted faster WiFi. Tried all the usual steps, changing MAC address to previous router (with no difference), turning off QoS (with no difference), turning off IPv6 (was already off) doing a factory reset (also with no difference in speed).
My link speed under Ethernet is 1.0 Gbps, same with WiFi.
The upload speed is also weirdly higher than download.
