TL-WR841N wifi slow speed

Model : TL-WR841N
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hi, I've read thru all related threads, but I still feel unsure about what to do.
I'm using a Fritz Box 7490 and the TL-WR841N, both with the latest firmware.
Using the Fritz Box alone, download wifi speeds are around 15-20 mbps.
I added the TL-WR841N as a secondary router via WAN since I need IPv4 addresses. My ISP only provides IPv6 address. The Fritz Box is a ISP tailored version, not allowing IPv4 directly.
Fritz Box remained unaltered. The 841N is setup with a static IP, DHCP is on (off won't work), nothing bridged, has its own SSID.
The download wifi speed has dropped sharply to only 1-2mbps on the amazon fire tv when I stream.
What can I do to get the speed back to where it was without the 841N?
Thank you so much for your help in advance.

perhaps you should test your tp-link independantly, so if you can do :
1- test wifi data transfert (ftp) between 2 hosts wifi connected , with WAN unplugged
2- test wifi data transfert (ftp) between 2 hosts wifi connected , with WAN plugged
what result ?
maybe a possible trouble with dhcp too interfering with ipv6 router (hope is dhcp disabled) ,
did you put static ip into tp-link ipv4 dhcp, i think should be better.
why do you say : "DHCP is on (off won't work)"
must try a static ip to see result.

I checked again with the manufacturer. Not even TP-Link has a clue.
I want to thank all off you who put in so much effort and time to help me here. I'm afraid it's not meant to be, which is why I'm returning the router.
