After doing quite a bit of reading in this forum of old threads the consensus was to roll back to 1.0.2.52_1.0.39

It did help to get much faster speeds for me also tried the fresh tomato firmware but it didnt seem to help me but it did completely wipe all my settings and I was 100% sure nothing was carried over in any way. If you want to try it out it can be found here. https://freshtomato.org/downloads/freshtomato-arm/2020/2020.2/Netgear%20R-series%20initial%20files/
have you tried enabling ipv6?
What website are you using for testing?
Make sure qos, access control, traffic monitoring, and parental controls are all disabled. Then reboot the device and test.
Ipv6 was disabled I set it to Auto detect and it chose DHCP. Everything under qos is disabled except for WMM tab. All other settings are disabled
- Did it help?
Did you try a factory reset and new install? (don't use a backup)- I've done 3-4 factory resets. The one I've noticed is that it doesn't need to update the firmware after the resets so I think it's probably the firmware. I may need to roll that back.
If the reset doesn't work, then I'd certainly try the rollback on firmware.
