I live in a Lennar home, and we recently switched our Internet to onward fiber. Since switching, I am having issues with the ruckus a P extenders. It seems that it doesn’t like to play well with the new router. Any suggestions?

Can you describe in more detail the problem, because by default what the access points require from the new router is to pass the traffic to the Internet, also that the new router will be the device in charge of providing the IP addresses for all the devices connected to your wireless or wired network?

So when i switched to fiber and connected my new internet to the AP I’m only getting speeds of up to 100 mb. Without the ruckus, my speeds are upwards of 600 mb.
Check that the ethernet cable is actually negotiating to a gigabit. Sounds like it's at 100Mbps.
Hi @Amack2199
As @Squozen said please verify that the Ethernet cable is good. Many times it is damaged at one of the ends and that is why you do not get the desired speed.

I checked the Ethernet cables and they appear to be good. The cable from the modem to the router is a yellow CAT 5 Ethernet cord, the cord from the router to the Ruckus system is black and labeled as ansi/tia-568-c.2 does that black cord support speeds over 100?
Also I’ve checked all the ports and cable connections, they all seem to be in good condition to me.
Hi @ Amack2199
A simple way to check this is to connect a computer directly to the ICX 7150 switch and perform a speed test to see if the problem originates in the switch or only when you are connected to the access points wirelessly.
