did you ever factory reset and test if from the defaults?

Factory reset did it. Pretty dumb that Qos & Traffic Meter continue to kneecap your speeds even if they are disabled.

Glad it worked!
A backup is always a good thing to have for next time :)
When you save a configuragion backup, it is also a good idea to annotate in the file name the firmware version installed when the backup was made. In general it is not good/succesful practice to restore a backup to a different firmware version than was installed when it was saved.
