Hi I have an AX86U Pro router with an AC86U mesh node (was previously the router). Until a few weeks ago everything was working fine. I have 900mbps fibre broadband and would get around 915mpbs download and 110mpbs upload when connected to the router. Download speed would drop to around 450-550mpbs when connected to the node but everything was working well. I recently purchased an AX59U router to replace an old netgear device that was used as a bridge to provide ethernet to some devices downstairs. I set the AX59U up as a mesh node and all worked as expected I'm getting the same performance on that node as I am on the AC86U.
Today the performance on the AC86U has dropped drastically. I'm now seeing only 10mbps download speeds (upload remains at around 110mbps). I've tried rebooting/resetting the device. Turning off the new AX59U in case it was causing interferance in some way but nothing is having an effect. I have another AC86U router that was previously used as a node but now not used as it's just slightly too big to fit anywhere. I used this to replace the AC86U node and am seeing the same issue.
I'm at a bit of a loss as to why performance has suddenly dropped so much and what else I can test. Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.
Nodes are connected via WiFi not ethernet.
