R6400v2 Speed issue
hi i created a topic about this back in 2019 and the issue still isnt resolved . my internet speed is 500/500 mbps , im able to get those speeds on the V1.0.3.66_10.0.50 software , but when i update the firmware my speeds drop to 200 mbps or less . i tried rebooting and factory resetting . i went back to the previous V1.0.3.66_10.0.50 firmware and speeds are back to normal. is this going to be fixed?

We're not netgear. this is the community support forum where members of the public help out. so we dont' know firmware plans or what netgear is working on.

Is this it?
Speeds decreased in latest firmware update ( R640... - NETGEAR Communities
There is far too little information there to allow anyone to begin to suggest what might be going on.
with the latest firmware V1.0.4.118_10.0.90 my speeds have dropped from 500/500 to around 200/150 , on firmware version 1.0.3.66 i was getting 500 down and up , but ever since i updated the firmware im getting no more than 200 mbps . i've been having this issue for a while now. i tried rebooting and factory resetting the router .
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router, if there is one. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
The reason for asking is that a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.
