R7000 speedcap Xbox Series X over ethernet
I'm having the exact same issue, and we are not alone;
https://www.reddit.com/r/xbox/comments/l8u019/xbox_series_x_and_netgear_r7000_ac1900_nighthawk/
I've tried doing a factory reset but unfortunatly this doesn't fix the problem. If i connect the xbox directly to my Fiber connection it gets arour 700MBps. When the xbox is connected to my Nighthawk R7000 it's caped at around 200MBps.
The strangest thing is when i open the browser on my xbox, go to speedtest.net i'm getting 700Mbps results. So for some strange reason it only hapends when doing an internet speedtest or download from the store.
Hopefully someone can help us with this strange problem.

Upgrade the router.
