1. QoS isn't recommended at speeds >250mbps.
2. Turn off the qos and reboot. If you're speeds don't get back to >900mbps, then factory reset and reinstall the router. Qos settings have been known to be retained and can slow your speeds.
3. what modem are you using?
4. Firmware you're on?

Today I check it speed test again will drop to 540Mbps.
I Change to othe router to test it is normal of speed at 940Mbps.

A couple things.
1. What device are you testing on? make sure its a hardwired in device
2. You're using the speedtest app. speedtest isn't always the best at choosing servers to test at. Many of them can't saturate gigabit. try different servers if you're using speedtest. My area's speedtest won't saturate gigabit so I have to run off my isp's test server or dslreports.com

I very clearly of the problems of router speed is the router problem
1. Speed apps test I try to change many different server.
2. I using is desktop computer with lan cable connect to the router
Intel i9-9900k
Intel Ethernet I219-V
When I am factory reset the router. The speed is come back. Same device. Same DSL Modem. Same Lan Connect. Smae speed test apps and test server. The speed back to 950Mpbs
After two days will be drop half. Drop to 540Mbps
If the other problem of device computer or DSL modem or apps.
Why I just factory reset the router can be back to correct speed.
Why ?
I have other router. Same device. Same DSL Modem. Same Lan Connect. Smae speed test apps and test server.
I just plug in to DSL Modem and connect to computer. The speed is correct to 940Mpbs.
Why ?
