Issued Resolved.......Spoke with NETGEAR support, they had me change channels from "auto" to 9 for 2.4 ghz and /153 for 5ghz band now running at full 100Mbps.
What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
It might also help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router. The model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
Firmware version is V1.1.0. 86_ 1.0.1

Really? This?
Doesn't even look like a modem.
Sorry, not that smart about this stuff...Internet/fiber feed comes out of CAT5e wall jack and into this unit.
