Wired Speeds R7000

We have the R7000 for a while now and I noticed that after upgrading to 750Mbit connection, the router doesn't go higher than 350 capped.   Directly into the modem does 750/750 without any problems...

    Case850, I would love to test everything, only problem is that our ISP is blocking out the option to bridge the Draytek, they just simply don't allow it, it's greyed out. Probably it's because our television is also running through the same modem.
     
    So I think that means i'm stuck at AP mode, until they either give us more options or another modem.
     
     
     
     
     
     An older Firmware didn't do the trick for me, but that was two days ago when the whole infastructure was giving headaches, so I could give that a try again soon.

Try using DMZ on the Draytek modem/router combo for the R7000 while in Router mode and see if this helps. Do a factory reset on the R7000 and don't touch or configure, QoS, Traffic Meter or Access Control after setting it up. Just configure WIFI settings and see if this helps.

QoS is off, tried a complete factory reset but still nothing.
