Nighthawk R7000 not reading my bandwidth properly

[suewald]

App version: 2.10.6.1635

Firmware version: v1.0.9.88_10.2.88

OS: Windows 10

ISP: Spectrum

Bandwidth: 400 mbps

Why is my router only picking up 200 mbps when I do a speed test on it?

I have a similar issue with my R7000.  Google fiber, 900+ up and down connected directly to computer but only 350-400 when connected via router (ethernet, not wifi).  I'm using an older firmware version (v1.0.9.42) and am considering updating to the latest firmware but I don't think that will change anything.

@suewald 

1. that's not the latest version of firmware. 

2. whatt modem are you using? 

3. how are you testing speeds? using the nighthawk app? using  the speedtest app? over wireless? over a wired connection? 

4. do you have qos, access control, parental controls, or traffic monitoring enabled?
