I'd start with a factory reset and reinstall. Don't use a backup.
If that doesn't help, then I'd try downgrading the firmware a version.
I have the same issue. R6700v3 V1.0.4.122_10.0.95. I pay for 750mbps and only get 250mbps download max with this router. I tried reinstall firmware, tried factor reset. Tried removing power to everything and powering everything back up (with time delays) in proper order from modem, router, to computer. Still no luck. I know the modem is good because I have another older router that atually gets 750mbps. Also tried disabling QoS (disabled by default), turn off Access Controls (disabled by default), Turn off Traffic Meter (disabled by default). I am at a loss. Very frustrated with this router now. Loved it, now hate it.
Any other ideas out there?
I can go back firmwares until the issues goes away (if it does). Haven't tried that yet. But it is a huge time waste.
What is interesting, is if it is set as an Access Point it actually gets the 750mbps! But when it is in router mode it does not.
