Congratulations on a well-documented and thorough post.
Thank you! I promise I did look for a solution before posting.
In the user interface under the Advanced Tab -> Internet Port -> Show Statistics it will show your individual port status. Each of your ports should show 1000M/Full. Do they?
They Do:
- LAN1 = Xbox
- LAN2 = Desktop
After you made the changes, did you power down your entire network and restart it in sequence?
I repeated this step just in case. But I'm seeing the same results (desktop ~700M down, Xbox ~130M down)
I had performed a factory reset of the router when we were setting the system up post Fiber install as well.
I assume that'll revert the firmware version if I do it again, and It's annoying to reset everything. But I'm willing to try.

The Xbox is a constant source of issues around here. It is sometimes down to the settings on the Xbox itself.
