XR700: not getting isp speeds on wifi

Hello, I'm having issues with wifi speeds on the router. My isp upgraded my modem to an gb modem. After the change I tested it out with the tech. I was getting the speeds wired but wireless im getting 450 max. When I'm supposed to get at least 950mbps. I factory reset the router and it detected my new speeds but still wifi is only getting 450 max. Here what have done so far to fix the problem.

Disabled smart connect
Changed 5ghz channels also used wifi analyzer app to find best one.
Turned QoS off and on
Factory reset

Is there anything I can do?

  • What devices are you testing the wireless on? Are they capable of higher than 450Mbps? Have you got faster than that on the WiFi before?

        In Advanced WiFi settings enable MU-MIMO, Beam forming and HT160 and see if that improves speeds on the Note.
