Nighthawk x4s C7800 w slow speeds from Xfinity Gigabit
Hello! I've had my C7800 for a little over a year with Xfinity Gigabit as my ISP. When I first got it, I was getting wired connections around 800+ Mbps, 5Ghz WiFi at 400+ Mbps, and 2.4 Ghz Wifi ...

Hi, I have a new 1 gig service from Xfinity and with my brand new C7800 I am experiencing the following speeds:
S9+ Cell phone on WIFI 5G - 350 Mb down
PC Windows 10 on WIFI 5G - 60 MB down
same PC on wire directly from router - 30 MB down.
I have checked all cables and had Xfinity reset my service (which did nearly double my previous speeds to those listed above). I don't understand how my wired speed can be slower than my WIFI. I can't find any settings that would explain this. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you,

What are your wired speed results with a wired PC and ooklas installable speed test app?
Do you happen to have a different wired PC to compare tests results with?
