Hello,
Thanks for the response. I believe that I discovered the culprit: my Sony ST-HT5000 soundbar. The subwoofer connects to the sound bar wirelessly and it was connecting at the 5.8 GHz RF Band. After I switched that to 5.2 GHz, and tested devices connected to the satellite, I am getting between 600-700 mbps.

Not a perfect solution but is doable.
Basically having the exact same problem. Just happened a few weeks ago.
