Hi @Charl 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

What parameters have you enabled? DPI? IPS/IDS? They are CPU-heavy features and will slow down your network speed. This was written in the instructions and Configuration Guide we have.

Also, check if you have any bandwidth limit.

If you are not certain about what you configured, reset it and plug-and-play use it. Direct connect to the router bypassing anything else. See if you experience the same result. That's how to verify whether the router is at fault.

Thanks, 

Had a look an I do not have any options for DPI, IPS, IDS. My menu looks the same as https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/653202

Bandwidth Limit and Rate/Session limits are Disabled. 

I swapped the router for a new ER707-M2 v1.0 and the Performance went back to What is Expected. Leads me to think that I wasn't configuration based. 

What you think ?

 

Try what I suggested in the #1. Reset would be the easiest way to tell if there is a hardware issue or not.

I would recommend you swap the cables as well. 3 ft cables to connect WAN and LAN.

Regardless, the M2 has a better chipset in it too.
