wired into the extender you get 100mbps?
are you speedtesting on wireless over 2.4ghz or 5ghz? Try both
Did you set it up using wps or the installation assistant?

I dont have Lan port in my laptop to check this.
I have tried noth 2.5 and 5Ghx. Both are about 1 Mbps max speed
I used installation assistant from web browser.

But you put you got 100mbps on a wired connection?
Not sure how you're testing that.
Have you tried speedtesting on the extender using different devices?
If you log into the extender, what is is showing for your status page (it'll have details on the connection link back to the router)

My wifi internet connection is 110-120 mps on upload and dowload without any issues, I had tested many times previously. I have this connection since over a year.
I get the same low download speed on my phone as well when connected to the extender.
Pls see attached my status.
