Are you supposed to be seeing 5Gb both UP and Down?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
What brand and model# ethernet adapter are you using that's connected to the back of the RS?
Try disabling the following and see:
Armor, Smart Parental Controls or Circle, Traffic Meter.
