Additional information needed for clarity:
What is the full model number of your router? Look on the nameplate on the device.
What is the full brand name and model number of your modem/ONT connected upstream of your router? Look on the nameplate on the device.
When your say your throughput when connected to the router, I presume you are talking about a Wi-Fi connection?
If yes, what band are you connected to? The 2.4 GHz band or the 5 GHz band?
What device, brand name and model number, are you connected with when you measure your throughput?
What application are you using to measure throughput? Recommend using the Ookla stand alone application that does not use a web address or web browser. Available from the playstores.

Hi there
The router (data plate uploaded) is connected to the modem (data plate uploaded) via a Cat8 cable. Yes I’m measuring internet speed using Ookla. I figured no point I’m measuring the WiFi till the hardwired connection is sorted.
