Double-check your router's settings in your manual and see if there's something that could be mimicking the effects
that you're seeing. (Googling your router make and model can sometimes bring up issues you're looking for.)

Try different patch cords (if you have anything left hard-wired.) Sometimes a mis-crimp can add unwanted capacitance and
partially filter out higher-frequency signals. (How many packet errors were you receiving?)

If your network is mostly wi-fi, you could have too much background noise/cross-talk that's interfering with network
signals. The network gear should lower its bandwidth automatically to help compensate (unless you forced a specific speed.)

Lastly, hardware can develop faults..even new out of the box.
