Netgear r6080 50%speedloss when connected through hes-3106tp switch

Have 100/10. if connected without the switch i get full speed, but with it i have about 40/9. (Same with only the switch, full speed)

Thank you for an answer! The other router was a really old netgear evg-2000. I have to placering the switch before the router. Ive been ripping my hair for 3 weeks and just came home after reklamation of the r6080. Bought an asus rt-ac1200g+ instead, and its working just fine, getting 99/10 😬

What's the other router?

 

The R6080 is limited to 100BASE-T on the LAN/WAN. Great bottleneck there. Surprising for a relatively new router. This is now slower than many Internet services. 

If the other router does 1000BASE-T that might explain it. That seems to be what the HES-3106TP does.

I assume that the switch comes after the router. If so, thanks to the router, nothing will exceed 100 Mbps.
