Network performance is constrained by the router's capabilities.
We possess a modem from our internet service that includes Wi-Fi, but it isn't sufficient for the entire house. I've set up a router in my room to extend coverage. The issue arises when connecting directly via cable—full 300 Mbps—but once the router is involved, speed drops to 100 Mbps. My router model is an Asus RT-Ac1200G+.
It seems your Wi-Fi card might not be powerful enough for maximum performance, which could reduce your internet speeds.
I linked to the router in my room using a cable, but it continues to restrict access—my laptops aren’t affected either.
