I have an EM12-G modem inside the NEXQ6GO-M router. Using mobile data on my phone, I can break 100mbps early morning, but over WiFi, it won't go over 25mbps (seems to flutter around 22-23mbps). Actually just got it to around 28mbps.
I originally had it connected to my main router, using a cat5 cable in LAN1 port of the NEXQ6GO-M. Once I noticed the speed cap, I decided to use the WiFi straight from the NEX. Same speeds.
What could be the cause? When doing a speed test, it shows CA (2+13) on the modem status page, the same as my phone. Those are the only bands on the local tower.
Using Visible, TTL 64
EM12-G / NEXQ6GO-M capped at 22-25mbps?

Re: EM12-G / NEXQ6GO-M capped at 22-25mbps?
Who knew WiFi was so complicated 
Both routers had about the same speed. I got up to around 40mbps once. I had wireless disabled on the NEXQ6GO-M, but enabled it for testing.
Here are the specs from the manual of my Netgear WNDR3400v3:

Found your problem.
Looks like you are using a type-N, WiFi or WiFi-4.
If you feel the need.... the need for speed ....LoL ...you will need to up your hardware game to WiFi-6
WiFi is sexy, but if you need to do a Zoom call, would use a good old CAT cable.
WiFi is half duplex, half as fast as a cable
