a couple things.
1. you won't see 600mbps over wireless. wired you will
2. there's a 2.4ghz band and 5ghz band. 100mbps is pretty fast for 2.4ghz. the 5ghz should hit faster speeeds.

4. what device did you test on? Have you tried other devices?
5. since you upgraded you speeds, did you ever factory reset/reinstall? sometimes old settings can slow the speeds.

glad it was an issue of the band connected to!
If you mark it solved, it might helps others with the issue and prevents others from trying to fix it as well :)
