Any improvements to Router speeds after Deco M5?

Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

My setup was

 

  1. CLink Fiber - Gigabit
    1. CLink Router
      1. DecoM5 (a)
      2. DecoM5 (b)
      3. Computer

 

When using deco as router, the deco would handle all DHCP and routing for the whole network, so even my PC, which was connected to the CLink router was at its mercy. Not a problem, normally. I even set computer as high priority during this.

 

The Computer was getting really slow performance, steam was downloading at 18 MB/s.

 

I swapped the decos over to Access Point, and restarted my CLink router, and then my downloads shot up on my PC 4-5x

 

Why does having the Deco in router mode ruin my downloads on wired PC?

Anything I can do to keep it in router mode without losing performance? I liked the parental controls.

Do newer versions of the Deco line have this problem?

 

Thanks

@Alepoc 

Hi, it does not make sense why the speed on wireless router mode is far worse on access point mode;

If you do not mind, would you please help me confirm the following information:

1. When the Deco was on the wireless router mode, what is the internet speed test on the Deco APP?

2.Did all the clients have a slow speed or just this laptop?

3.Would the speed improve if connecting to the 5ghz band or Ethernet?

Thank you very much.
