All the other devices work fine and get full speeds?
Is the iphone connected to the 2.4ghz or 5ghz?

I hate to say this but
1. I don't have an iphone so I'm not sure if you can check it through the wireless settings (android guy)
and
2. I dont' have a xr500 (or any other dumaOS device) so i have no idea if the attached devices page shows what band you're connected to.
Sorry!
maybe @Netduma-Fraser has a little more info on the XR500 side of things 🙂

What version of the firmware are you on?
Have you tried a simple reboot of the router?

You can always cheat and potentially disable the 2.4ghz on the router for a period of time. Thatt would ensure the iphones on the 5ghz. test the speed and see what you get. Then turn the 2.4ghz back on so devices can use it.
page 110 goes over disabling wifi
