Hi mrkwanzaa,

 

1. Have you tried changing the wireless channel for the 5GHz band just for isolation?

2. Does the issue persist on all the devices that connect to the 5GHz band?

3. Have you tried resetting the router?

4. Have you tried changing the mode?

Thanks DexterJB. I tried all of those things with no different results. Interestingly enough after factory reseting my router for the first few seconds of the speed test I got the speeds I wanted, but it quickly went down.
