R6700v3 slow ethernet, slow wifi

I have poor internet speeds, download speed to be specific, while connected to my router. I have tried connecting directly to my modem (CM500V) and have my usual ~180 Mbps down, but with the router I have anywhere between 5-1 Mbps down. 

 

I have tried the following:

  • Resetting my router, i.e. pushing the button on the back, unplugging all of the wires from the device
  • Factory resetting it
  • Changing the ethernet cable
  • Unplugging the modem
  • Reverting to an old firmware version R6700v3-V1.0.2.66_10.0.48 
  • Upgrading back to the current firmware R6700v3-V1.0.3.66_10.0.50
  • Changing the MTU size to 1300, and 1400 from the original 1500
  • Switching the ethernet port I use to connect to my pc
