Rax80 Cuts Internet Speed In Half

When we run a speed test on our modem (Motorola) we have speeds of 680 mbps since Xfinity upgraded our speeds. When we run the speed test on our router (Netgear RAX80) our speeds are cut to 370 mbps, with only one port connected. Why are we losing so much speed on this router? What can we do to improve our speeds on the router? The hard wired and Wi-Fi speeds are between 300 to 400 mbps.

1. what modem do you have? 

2. what firmware is on the router? 

3. You recently upgraded the speeds? Have you tried factory resetting the router and reinstalling? maybe an old qos setting is causing issues.
