Are you testing with a wired PC and Ooklas installable speed test app on a wired PC thru the RBR?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
ALL WiFi disabled on the ISP Router?
Try disabling the following and see:
Armor, IPv6, Smart Parental Controls or Circle, Traffic Meter.
Also try the RBR in AP mode with the ISP gateway in router mode with IP Pass-thru DISABLED and with a wired PC connected to the RBR.
Does this happen with the RBS turned OFF?
Does this happen with both wireless and wired devices?
What channel configurations are currently set on the router?
How many RBS are deployed?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router 📡 and satellite(s)🛰️? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR 📡 and RBS 🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wired or wirelessly connected.
