that R6400 isn't going to give you super fast speeds because its a pretty base model, gigabit device.
You can try changing what channels you're broadcasting on.
Or even try a factory reset and reinstall (make sure to leave, qos, access control, traffic monitoring, and parental controls all disabled).

I forgot to mention, that this is a relatively new issue I've been dealing with. I used to get excellent wifi speeds from it. I understand that the wifi speeds will be slower than LAN speeds, but I used to get around 450 from wifi anywhere in my house.
