Dirty

Ok I'm done here, this is useless. I seriously can't believe all your doing is circles, there's no change wired or not, yes the devices know it's plugged in, yes the wires are good I've tried multiple no change or worse speeds. I'm pretty sure these should be silent operation, the nighthawk makes awful noises while under any load, pretty sure a capacitor or something failed, the downloads just spike constantly and goes to 0mb every second no matter what I'm trying to download. It can't sustain any download speeds at all. There has to be a problem internally.

The modem is a standard modem my isp gave me, an arris cm8200 touchstone.

I just reinstalled the firmware, no change in speeds watching the network overview download speeds just spike then go to nothing constantly.

Andd i really thought this nighthawk was 2 years but apparently i bought it feb of 2022 so the nighthawk is only a year old....

QoS was disabled for the speed tests with only 3 devices connected, phone xbox and laptop. No im not using armor. when I moved the router i changed the wire from originally 4ft to about 30ft all the wires im using currently are cat8 and are about 2 weeks old, but there's been no difference in anything I've tried. Changed wifi channels, IP dynamic/static, IPv6 on/off putting the Xbox in traffic controller nothing Is changing the extremely low speeds

The linksys is new less than 24 hours since received and kinda a bandaid to try and take some of the 40 devices usually connected as I troubleshoot. been experiencing problems for about 3 weeks now with the nighthawk it was doing fantastic for 2 years prior. And like I said the speedtests where taken while each router was off and unplugged from the modem so the only bandwidth the nighthawk should be seeing is from them 3 devices yet speeds are horrible. I'm almost thinking somethings gone bad internally since I've moved it 5 ft away it definitely makes some noise...

Speedtest.net gave me these results Phone s20 (wifi only) 79.87mb nighthawk, 349mb linksys Laptop Nitro 5 (wifi only) 88.58mb down 52mb up nighthawk , 562.91 mb down 52 mb up linksys Xbox series X wifi only speed test shows 124mb down 52mb up but in actual downloads it's max 17mb Nighthawk, 587mb down 52mb up actual download max was 387mb linksys I reset the night hawk and only have the phone, laptop and xbox connected, qos is off when running this test and im about 5ft away from the night hawk, the linksys MR8300 (40 buck refurbished router) has 14 things connected and still manages to allocate bandwidth better than this nighthawk right now and it's on the other side of the house about 40ft away. I did Speed tests with only 1 router on at a time.

And these are the speeds I get, hard wired with cat8 cable less than 10 foot away.

Oh here's a speed test results just showing the router is definitely receiving the right download and upload speeds

Here ya go. Port 3 I was using to check speeds with multiple devices to see if it would improve the speeds coming from the nighthawk. Other than that it doesn't get used

Ok so I've had an XR1000 for 2 years now and was working pretty good, the past 3 weeks I've been plagued with absolute poopy speeds while plugged in or over wifi, with Duma os disabled or not doesn't have any changes, I'm paying for 1 gig downloads but don't even get 20mb. But if I connect to my cheap 40 buck linksys MR8300 i see speeds of 200mb or higher without a problem. So I'm extremely confused why the nighthawk is so slow.
