350Mbps connection, 100Mbps or less since a week or so

As per the title, I have a 350Mbps connection which has been working swimmingly for months but noticed sometime last week that things were significantly slower. Did a speedtest which came in at 95Mbps and have done one multiple times every day since and they're all coming in at 99Mbps or less.

Would appreciate some insight, not sure whether router is getting the correct config, have done the standard turn off and on again, will post network log below 🙏

    Seeing a network connection speed drop and then max out in the 90 Mb/s region usually means a 1Gb/s connection has dropped back the 100Mb/s. Suspect a network cable fault between the VM Hub and your laptop or PC.

    Within the HUB settings there is a 'Connected Devices' section where you can check the connected speed of each device.

    For wired devices it will show 100 or 1000.

    There's something interesting when people post about speed problems they never say wifi or wire....

    My patience is lost when a 2 line simple fault, later turns out to be in a hardcore IT expert's home network and 90% of the relevant equipment or usage details have been omitted.
