    do you get the same if you use another speed test site? If you do, then I'm out of ideas. 

     

    if you modem is a Gateway (modem+router) you need to set it in Bridge mode and use the R7800 as router

    This is not the latest firmware for the R7800, which is 1.0.2.62 

     

    Are you sure you have an R7800?

        Try a factory reset and manual reconfiguration. There are quite a few changes between .58 and .62 firmware
