In your initial post you post that its fine when by the router/connected to the router.

have you checked the difference from 2.4ghz to 5ghz?

Did you get your problem resolved?
I am having the same issues.
Connecting to Router with cable: ~800+ mbps
Switching to mesh wifi : Drops to ~120mbps
By the time i move near 3rd satelite it drops to < 40 mbps.
