You are right and Deco M6 is capable of 1G and 500-600m/s mentioned by Sebastiaan1 more refers to the wireless speed.
May I know who is your internet service provider and how about the model number of your ISP modem?
Can I have some pictures of the speed test of the main Deco via Ethernet cable as well as the link speed?
By the way, what is the model number of your tested laptop?

Hi, I am not sure what might cause the failure of DDNS and I have sent your my email address. Could you please record a video clip of this process for me?
By the way, have you tried to register DDNS under 4G mobile data, instead of via Deco wifi?
Thank you very much.

@David-TP
Hi, no I'm not referring to the wireless speed.
I'm talking about the wired speed.
I used the Deoc as 'pass through', e.g. it is wired to my router, and used the other ethernet port to connect my PC.
Then I only achieve ~600 mbps when copying files from my homeserver to my PC>
Perhaps you are using 'routed' mode?
I use it in 'access point' mode, it seems that that makes a differnce, see e.g.:
https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/238838
https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/203800
I have added a gbit switch now to allow my network to perform at full gbit speed.

David,
The speed test I am doing is using the deco app.
if I understand it correctly the deco app is executing the speed test on the main deco and should reflect the main deco received speed from my ISP Modem.
My internet providers is:
Cellcom Israel.
My plan is 1GB download 100Mbps upload.
The deco main unit is connected to a Nokia Modem:
Attached is my main deco version.
Speedtest results from my main deco:
note 1:
when I am running a speed test from one of my desktop computers which is connected to the main deco via a gigabit switch I get the following :
Note 2:
When I disconnect the main deco and connect via a windows PC directly to the modem and a PPPOE dial up connection I get close to 1Gbps speeds.

@Bobus not sure what will be the benefit, I have attacked a speedtest from my desktop computer as well. you can see that I get higher speeds from my desktop, however, the main deco is unable to get more that 500.
if I had any terminal access to the main deco I would have run some speed tests other than speedtest.net.

@Dekel Do you have it in router or access point mode? In case access point: might just be the limit I refered to in my earlier posts.

This last version of beta test is trash.
Lot of instability and connectivity issues. Had to roll back to the first version and issues are gone.
