Issue with upgrading firmware on D6100
When upgrading firmware on this model, my 5ghz speeds get halved from 80 mbps to 40 mbps and 80 mbps is the speed i get from my isp, the moment i rolledback my firmware from newer ones to older ones ...

Also just tried going through multiple firmwares, half speeds at 5ghz and even lower speeds at 2.4 ghz at times ! the moment u upgrade ur firmware from 1.0.0.46 on the D6100 model your download speeds on 5ghz are halved and ur download speeds on 2.4ghz take hits from time to time and once u downgrade to 1.0.0.46 version or lower i get solid full speed !

Any help or update so far from the mods ?
also it seems the router shows as AC750 here while it's actually AC1200
