Deco not working well with computer?

Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.6 Build 20230110 Rel. 41561

I recently had my internet provider make some changes and that usually results in disaster.

 

I got my 3 decos re-set up and the speedtests says that they're working great.  HOWEVER, the speedtest on my computer is very....very.....very...low.  Which makes me think it's not working with the Deco despite choosing it on the WiFi.

 

On the landing page of my Deco app, it says that "everything looks good", but the down speed averages 1 Kpbs and the upload averages 7 Kpbs.

 

So:

 

1) Why is my laptop showing a ridiculously slow speed?

2) Why does the speedtest on the Deco app have different speeds than the landing page (see below)3c35c97b98454dd29753258c9207389e?

Hi, Welcome to the community.

The speed here:

8c1fabb7986c493784d3ffad76317047

It is recording the real-time internal data transfer rate through the main Deco, not the actual download or upload speed of Deco from the ISP modem.

I see your model is Deco M5, Have you checked the current internet speed on Deco from the ISP modem via "Test internet speed" on the APP?

If yes, how much speed you could get?

And how much speed you could get on the computer when you test it via speedtest.net?

 

Thank you very much.

Best regards.

The Speedtest on the app says it's downloading over 530 mbps, upload 23.5 mbps.

 

The Speedtest.net says my laptop is downloading around 40 mbps, upload 20 mbps.

Following up.

 

At this point, it doesn't appear that the Deco has any benefits to my speed or connection. 

 

Please advise.
