Since the day I purchased my router (a year before), I have been getting speed around 150 mbps even though I had a plan of 400 mbps from my ISP. All these days I thought the issue was with my ISP. ...

I'm in the same boat and have been reading a lot of threads with a similar problem but not finding any good resolutions so will be following in case you hit upon what is needed!
Quick question: How were you able to downgrade your firmware to V1.0.3.66_10.0.50? I did a factory reset last night but it just reset back to V1.0.4.122_10.0.95.
Just changed our ISP from Xfinity to RCN and am supposed to be getting 1gig speeds. When I plug ethernet cable directly into computer we get around ~800mbps but speed tests over Wifi are only getting around ~200mbps.
So, probably a similar setup.

Right, so I am also trying to get this issue resolved. I hope to get atleast close to what I am paying for.
To downgrade, I used routerlogin.net
You need to login to your router
Find the firmware version V1.0.3.66_10.0.50 online, extract the .chk file from the zip file of the firmware
In the router login page, go to wireless - advanced tab - administration - router update.. choose the above .chk file and upload - then apply.
Then it would take sometime to downgrade and then you need to again create a password I think.. set up security answers.
At one point you would be asked if you would like to upgrade the firmware to the latest version, just select no.
I guess these instructions will help.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Good luck!
