Model: Deco X55  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: Current

Just set up my x55 system. Main unit is connected directly to cable modem (port 1). Port 2 has ethernet into a splitter that goes to 2 different rooms where each has its own deco. Wifi speeds are great (450-500). Deco 2 in wife's office hooked via ethernet to deco #2 gets just under 100 mbps. Am I missing something? App shows I have ethernet backhaul, so why would I be getting this issue to a hardwired connection

  @Peteybertrand You say that Port 2 goes into a "splitter". Do you mean a network switch? 

 

I suspect that the "splitter" has a max bandwidth of 100Mb, and that is why you're not getting faster speeds there. 

 

I ran into the same problem. Once I replaced the 100Mb network switch with a 1Gb switch, the problem went away.
