What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
What wireless devices do you have?
Do a factory reset and this time don't set up a custom SSID name just yet.
After the modem is online, test the speeds with a wired PC. Then test with your wireless device. Connect to the default SSID first and check speeds. Speeds still inconsistent or consistent at this point?
After testing, set a custom SSID and PW.
Set a IP address reservation for your devices ON the router.
