DECO X20 Speed Drops significantly After firmware update 1.1.4 Build 20221115 Rel. 78784.

Model: Deco X20  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.1.4 Build 20221115 Rel. 78784

Since my Decos firmware was upgraded to 1.1.4 Build 20221115 Rel. 78784 this morning my internet speeds are terrible. I have called my ISP 3 times today to troubleshoot and they are telling me there are no network issues in my area and the gateway is working as expected. On average I usually see Upload speeds in the 200 mbps range and 20-30 for upload. Today based on a speed test the connection went as low as 47.62 mbps. This has happened at least four times today and the only thing that has changed is the firmware on my mesh routers. I am going to disconnect them and connect directly to the Gateway to see if my speeds normalize and stay consistent.

Okay since you are using a Gateway the first question for us would be, what mode are you using the Deco in?  Is it in a router or AP mode? The next question would be, what node are you connecting to and how far from the node are you?

  @Carl I have it set as a WiFi router and the gateway is set so it is only acting as a modem. The main deco is right beside the gateway and plugged into port 1 on deco which goes to lan1 on gateway. It's been configured and working great for past 8 months.

Okay good, so we know it's not a Double NAT issue then.  My next question would be: Have you or are you able to test the speed via Ethernet directly to the main Deco?

  @Carl I had not checked that but I did just now. Speed test connected via Ethernet to main deco was 258.21 download and 50.66 upload.

Okay and your ISP speed is 300 down 30 up right?  Additionally when you were testing the speed wirelessly and got 90 Mbps was that on 2.4GHz?

  @Carl the WiFi speeds I was getting on average were in the low 200's for Upload and downloads on average at 20. What the ISP says is typical download speeds between 33-182 Mbps. So I am at this point just trying to rule out or in if the firmware update may have had a negative effect. This is a 5G home internet connection. I have been sent a new gateway that I haven't been able to setup yet. Just trying to cover all bases as my speed's drastically dropped after that firmware update.
