Your router is receiving a higher speed than advertised, but you're only getting around 400 mbits out. It might be due to network congestion, ISP throttling, or incorrect settings. Check your connection quality and consider testing with another device to confirm the issue.

If it's a budget router and it includes a strong SPI firewall, your device's processor might struggle to handle your connection. This is likely if you're not facing issues with WiFi speed. Older high-end routers (around $1000) from 5-7 years ago often ran into problems with fast gigabit connections because their advanced security features were putting too much strain on the router's CPU.

Check what my router is currently doing. I’ll review the firewall settings. Just to clarify, I’m not using a cable connection.

Check the current CPU usage to see if it's during download or when idle.

Check the router's QoS configurations. It might be handling basic traffic management on your internal network.
