I configured my Virgin Media Super Hub 3 in modem mode and set up the Archer C7 AC1750 as the primary router using Dynamic IP and Mac cloning. However, I’m not seeing the expected speeds (~100mbps) and tests consistently fail. The PC used for testing is connected via a wired connection. Let me know if you have any questions.

I own the super hub 3, linked via Google Wi-Fi without any performance problems. Back then I used a Netgear AC6250 (model details were uncertain) and also experienced smooth speeds with that setup. Installing either device was straightforward—just connect and power them on. I suspect the issue might relate to your Mac cloning process since I configured the Netgear to use Google DNS, and Google Wi-Fi is set to its own DNS servers.
