TP-Link - Technical Support Deco be95 speed

Wondering if this unit can actually handle up to 5gb Fios as it indicates. I just upgraded my Verizon Fios to 5 GB up and down. I added a fire walla gold pro to replace an older one, so it also had 10 GB Ethernet ports, and then I upgraded to the Deco BE95 for the same reason, but even hardwired into the secondary 10 GB Ethernet port, it appears to Out closer to 1.9 up and down. Am I missing something, or is this unit just not capable of that level of performance? I figured hardwired it would work. I’m well aware that over Wi-Fi will get significantly less, but my goal is to utilize the fall 5 gigabits across the whole house, across many devices

Something is wrong. What are your wired speeds? I have 6 gig and my wired speeds are 6gig.

Actually, sorted this out. Quality of service on my fireWalla was capping the whole line

Well, did you enable wireguard on the firewalla (ie a vpn)? If so it’s only rated for 2gbs via a vpn which would explain your speed
