GS305v3 and Google Wifi Router

Recently purchased a GS305v3 to connect to a Google Wifi Mesh router. Wired speeds without the switch and directly into the modem run about 700-900 Mbps. Wifi connections to the Google system run around 300-400 Mbps. However, when I run anything from the GS305 which I've attached to the Google router, I only get speeds just over 100 Mbps. I've searched and cannot find any information on this configuration. Anyone have suggestions? 

 

Thanks!

Where is this switch connected into the Google WiFi router system - upstream between WAN port and modem, or downstream on the router LAN port?

Hard to imagine the switch (able to handle full link speed any to any port switching) does slow down. Challenge Google WiFi ...
