0Slow wired lan through EERO 6 pro
just had ISP changed in my house
New setup is this - ISP modem - set for 1 gig speed - from modem to EERO 6 pro by way of Cat6 cable - out of EERO 6 pro is cat 6 cable to new dlink 5 port gigabit hub - off hub is 3 wired devices - all connected with Belden CAT 6 cables to gigbit nics on the devices.
Indicators on hub show all connected at gig speed
using a samsung galaxy s22 phone - connected wirelessly to EERO pro 6 and did speed test - was getting 750 mbs
on any of my wired devices - using same speed test - getting 250mbs max.
Looking for suggestions or answers please on how to resolve wired speed issues
thanks in advance

I have the EXACT same problem and same setup. The only way I could get my speed back in my LAN was to put the Eeros in BRIDGE MODE making them a dumb WiFi AP. I then put my cable modem back in to router mode (so it does all the DHCP) and the LAN speed returns as the Eero is no longer being a gateway.
It’s rubbish as I bought the pro due to having gigabit - and Ethernet wise they are pants.

Odd problem. I can only think of a couple of variables you might try playing with:
1. The server you connect to in the speedtest.net app/site is customizable. Make sure you're connecting to the same server to compare apples to apples between the Wi-Fi and wired speed tests. Or just trying different servers in general.
2. Try temporarily eliminating the switch/hub. Make it just modem -> eero -> wired computer.

I had the same problem even after upgrading to a pro for my gateway - only way I could fix it was to bridge the Eeros. Doing this allows me to plug the switch for my LAN directly in to my Virgin router along with the eeros, in essence bypassing the eeros for all WIRED Lan / Wan traffic.
