R7800 sudden drop off in 5Ghz range

Up until today, the router worked great, have had it for about 8 months. The firmware nor settings had been touched for months, but suddenly my 5Ghz band started acting weak. I can get my full 380Mbps near the router but just 10ft and 1 floor away, and the speeds now range between 20Mbps and 150Mbps where they'd previously been at around 330-360Mbps. Tested it on multiple devices and performed a factory reset, didn't help. Any idea why this has suddenly happened? Thanks.

What actual firmware version are you on? 

Have you tried reinstalling the firmware (in case it was corrupt) or downgrading a version?
