NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 5ghz Connection Issues
If I sound frustrated, it's because I had a full post typed up only for it to fail to post when I hit post... so now I am going to try to remain detailed... but keep it shorter. Basically I have ...

Thanks for the clarification.
I’m on firmware 1.0.4.62_10.1.74.
I am using a Spectrum modem #e31u2v1.
I am fully aware that a factory reset is the obvious first step. I’m not implying that I DON’T want to do that. I’m simply clarifying that before I take that step, I’ve read people with similar issues say they’ve done the factory reset and still had same issue... so I just wanted to come here and see if anyone could maybe shed some light on whether they’ve experienced the same... or if the factory reset did work... or if it didn’t work, what next steps might they have taken to resolve the issue if they were able to resolve.
Happy to provide any and all additional information.

Reupping this to see if anyone can provide some answers.
All of the above applies. However, I did do a factory reset of the router... so I started from scratch... named each network differently with a unique password and the same issue occurred. One 5ghz network works great. The other one slows down to just about nothing. This randomly occurs vice versa.
If it helps I can give more info. I do have a lot of devises on wifi. Can give a specific number if needed. Also, it is about a 12 sq ft apartment... I donk think it necessarily has a lot of walls and barriers, but I digress. Regardless, I could be right next to the router and it still happens.
Anyone got any other feedback? Could really use it. It’s pretty frustrating not knowing what the hell the issue is especially after a factory reset. I actually reset my ipad and set up as new to see if it was the device software I had, but same issue happened with a fresh ipad.
