Persistant Router Lag

This router seems to alway be lagging whether I'm hardwired or on wifi. Every speedtest I run says I'm getting about 195 Mbps down and 6 Mbps up. However, the actual performance is nothing like that. So, any tips to make the Nighthawk actually work correctly? 

 

Here is the modem I'm working with:

    Why do you say its lagging? 

    Details are key because you're saying your tested speeds are fine but then saying you're getting lag. 

    Whats getting lag? 

    How are you testing it?
