Slow Download Speeds R710 Unleashed

Strange issue with R710 on latest unleashed firmware. Upload speeds consistently incredible on both laptop and phone but downloads even from 5 ft away never go over 200 but stay consistent through 3 thick walls. Speedflex on android shows 550 up 550 down to AP. Iperf reflects speedtest.net results. Cable shouldn't be the problem as I have plugged my laptop on it and gotten the gigabit fiber speeds I should be getting. I have factory reset it countless times set everything to auto and tried manually setting the bands and channel width, am I missing something? Any help would be appreciated.Image_ images_messages_5f91c3fe135b77e24790df97_43e5db9b2eca36b81d35b46dbdb8f876_RackMultipart20190818868831y92-dc568500-96c2-4610-9714-84fb1bdd684c-743324385.jpg1566155318

Spectrum line is 1gbps down and 40mbps up asymmetrical. Router / hardwired pulls 800-1000mbps consistently.

Any solutions to this yet? I'm see the same problem with speed here. We have a engineer looking into this as well. 

My final result is as follows; Rx10 series AP's should stay on 200.6. 200.5 seems to make things worse on other clients but better iperf/speedflex results. 200.8 made it even worse, so nothing has been changed as of today. 200.6 is best bet for unleashed on Rx10 series, getting consistently 450-600mbps on 200.6

Rx00 series perform best on 200.7.x.94, I have been testing r600 and r500 units extensively and it keeps coming back to 200.7 as the best blend. Have been consistently pulling in about 500mbps on 200.7

I haven't had time to get into zone director yet, but thats my next step. I have r300, r500, r600, r610, r700 and r710 in stock and i have 6 zd1200's all laying around. When I have time, I will do the same and see if any of the unleashed firmware issues have seeped into the ZD environment.

so what firmware version have the best perfomance? 200.4 or 200.6?
a big difference between these firmware if i use only 40mhz? for R500
what version more stable? what version will provide for 30-40 clients more speed?

newest firmware have many function, like disable wlan 2.4 on ssid, so what to choose?
