AX1500 speedtests at 160 Mbps on Gigabit Comcast with CM1200 which tests directly over 800Mbps

Comcast connection is 1000 Mbps. Cable Modem is NetGear CM1200. Router is TP-Link Archer AX1500.
Connected directly to cable modem, getting speedtest.com result of >800Mbps/35Mbps.
Connected to Archer AX1500 on LAN ethernet port (wired), getting consistently around 155-163 Mbps.
Ethernet Cable from Cable Modem to AX1500 is Cat 6, also used Cat 8, no difference.
Why would wired connection to router be 1/5 the speed of the wired connection directly to cable modem?
No other connections are in use during testing.
