How do I perform a factory reset on my NETGEAR router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support
Always do this when you have changed your Internet service. You want it to forget any settings carries over from the old Internet service.
Router speed test: Download: around 550 Mbps & Upload: around 500 Mbps
Also done wired?

Thank you very much for the link.
1- Wired: Router ---> ONT using Cat5 cable provided by ISP and running Netgear's own speed test available through the Netgear Nighthawk iOS APP: Download: around 550 Mbps & Upload: around 500 Mbps
2- Wired: PC ---> Netgear Nighthawk router running speed test in Chrome: Download - 655 Mbps & Upload - 440 Mbps
I will do the factory reset procedure and see if that improves things.
Thanks.
