A full reset of your MX4000 is most likely your best option. You may or may not need to reset the satellites.
After the router reset, a careful methodical restart of your network is called for.

Power up your modem and give it plenty of time to boot and stabilize.
Connect the Ethernet cable between your router and your modem. Then power up your router. Give it plenty of time to boot and stabilize. The DHCP servers at your ISP may need a few minutes to establish a WAN IP address for your router. Remember, it is now different hardware than the last time the address was established with your computer connected direct to the modem.
Run your capacity tests from the PC direct connected to the router.
There may or may not be a firmware update available for your MX4000. I am not familiar with the Linksys approach to updates.
Power levels look pretty good.
Do you have your logs?

That can happen with lower quality cables. Make sure you have a good quality cat 5e or cat 6 cable between modem---router and then router---device your testing on.
netgears routers have a page you can check (wan port statistics page) that'll tell you connection link on the wan and lan ports.
