AC750 Slow Speeds

My Model is the AC750 i believe.
I saw on another thread I now can't find (thanks to this clunky forum) that renaming your network does improve the speed of the extended connection and i've found this to be the case. It's still not as fast as the Virgin Fibre input but gone up to 100mbs from about 30.
Go into the tether app and simply rename your _EXT network to your own personalised one that's different from your incoming router's. You'll lose the connection from your devices to this network but re-connect and off you go.
You're welcome.
many thanks. Tbh I was just happy to have renamed the network and improved speed!
I connected to the original Virgin network and speeds were broadly similar but signal strength obvs not as strong as the extension. Right next to the router (in the living room downstairs across other side from box room office) is much quicker (300mb/s). TP link app diagnosed extension network as good speed / strength (see attached).
for someone of my technical ability I'm gonna stick with what I've got. Ideally putting booster halfway might help but there isn't a socket between boxroom and downstairs.
If I'm feeling brave or want to improve that speed I'll try playing around with settings as advised. many thanks,
