Netword Performance issuse
I have a 1000/100 fiber connection to my house and when I connect my laptop direct to the connection point, I get around 980/97 Mbit/s. When I connect the R8000 X6 wan-port to the connection point, ...
The problem is solved. There was some issue with the wlan. I have five AP, five switches and one router in my big house. When I reconfigured my r8000 fr.o.m. scratch with another ssid for the wlan and disconnected the rest of the network I got 965 Mbit/s down. Then I carefully configured and connected the other units. Now I have finished the network and the result is stunning. The throughput from internet is better than 950 Mbit/s all over the wired part of the network. Nearly three times what it was when I started.
There are no features enabled. Even the WiFi is dissabled.
I started from scratch with factory default to be sure there was nothing left that could downgrade the performance.
Testen an old WNR3200L v2 at there I get 675 Mbit/s down.
Also have an old Tecnicolor TG 799v2 vdsl/router from my old isp here in Sweden and there I get 845 Mbit/s down.
Is AP Mode enabled?

Did you figure out what caused the performance issue?
I think it was caused of a bad frequency planning of the wlan and there was a lot of internal traffic in the network. Even when the radio was of in the r8000 the performance was bad. But when I disconnected the rest of the network it was ok. Then I carefully rebuilded the disconnected part and connected it again and I was happy again.
