Hi @Chris01803
Welcome to the Community
That seems quite the drop. How are you performing your speed test, Wi-Fi or Ethernet?
Can you try re-starting your router? Just be sure to leave it switched off for 5 minutes in between.

@Chris01803 The later is about what you would expect wi-fi connected on a wi-fi 5 device, and the lower if you had dropped onto the wi-fi 4 with a 5ghz connection, unless the devices are struggling to keep up with the throughput off speed, Ethernet speed test would be good to see what you can get connected that way. If you have the app working, it should indicate what you are receiving to the router speed wise.

Have you run the speedtest in the app? That will give you a mush better of what you are getting at the router.
