Have you tried changing the 5ghz wifi channel?

I couldn't access the EX6150 to tell which firmware I had. However, I plugged it directly into the router with a different cable, I was able to get the proper download speed. Probably, the cable in my wall is bad. I was using both 2.5 and 5ghz. Thanks for the prompt reply.
