Router is at top front of house, signal reaches back yard, albeit at 40% strength. "

TP-Link - Archer AX5400 Pro Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 Router - Black
Model: Archer AX5400 ProSKU: 6532370Top comment"It has a 2.5 WAN port for a fast 4x4 5GHz band. It also has 4 LAN Ports or 3 LAN and 1 GB WAN ports. ...One thing to note is that if you disable your Smart Wi-Fi option, anything on the 2.5Ghz band will be *significantly* slower than your 5Ghz band. I get upwards of 400Mps on the 5Ghz band while peaking around 60Mps on the 2.5Ghz band, but that is the nature of the beast: the 2.5Ghz band is better for distance and suffers in speed, and the 5Ghz band benefits from your device being closer to the router and gives you much better speeds.
