Would you mind posting your Cable connection status results as well like I did. Would be helpful to see what yours looks like while on XF.

Ah, I see. I'm unable to test WiFi 6. Won't have any compatible devices until later this year. I was testing using wired:
My setup in this test case is the following: coax to CAX80 (very short run), Cat6 cable from the CAX80's multiGig port to a 10G D-Link switch. From there, I've got a Cat6 cable running to a Mac mini (2012) using a 2.5G Ethernet adapter.
