    1. Why are you using lan port aggregation? Use the 10 gig wan port on the router and the 2.5gig port on the cm3000. You'll have better throughput and less issues with stability/latency/ping

    2. the RS700 has 2x 10gig ports. 1 for the wan side, and one for device side. The other ports are 1gig. If you're only connected to a 1 gig line, you'll max out at gigabit speeds and not multigig. Thats how the wifi can hit faster speeds than the wired devices.

Thanks, Matt
