Is this over WiFi or directly connected through ethernet? If QoS is off then DumaOS shouldn't be the cause. May need to give the router the MAC address of your previous router.

This is over a LAN connection, not wifi.
I am not sure what you mean by giving my router the MAC address of my previous router.

Looking on your previous router for its MAC address and input that into Settings > Internet Setup so it appears to be the old router from modem perspective.
