R6700V3 Downstream QOS speed issue

Hi Guys, I just purchased this router and I'm having some speed issues when QOS downstream is enabled, currently running latest FW. 

 

My ISP speed is 50 MB, when QOS enabled, I get 1mbps in average from speedtest.net, is this normal? I\m getting it on both bands, 2.4 abd ghz.

 

Any ideas? Should I avoid using this feature?

 

Thanks.

    What I changed was the cable from cable modem to router to cat 6 cable and it worked. perhaps my old cable was defective.

    Hi timsalu,

     

    What priority did you set on your device under QoS?

    How many devices are affected?
