I shut down the wireless service and speeds came back fine. I restarted wireless and the speeds are still there.

Next time, I’ll downpower the Airpark to see if that fixes it.

Interesting!

Swap-in old AE, and get fast speeds, akin to plugging-in directly to the cable modem. Swap-in TC, and download speed reduces by a factor of 10. Not to mention that the upload speed stays consistent.</p> I updated my post to reflect that all these numbers came from doing tests over Ethernet cable.

Curious to see if it's the wireless signal or the unit itself.</p> Did you try plugging into the ethernet port on the TC? Curious to see if it’s the wireless signal or the unit itself.
