Any thoughts?
that's not even 500mbit speeds because my speed tests always came out at 578mbits. Have you tried changing which server you run the test from? I think by default speedtest.net chooses the closest server but it isn't always the best. Since I upgraded to 1gbit I have found that there are very few test servers which can support 1gbit and there is a particular one in Sheffield (IDAQ) which can do it and provides very consistent results.

It's not in router mode, it's a Mikrotik router doing round robin load balancing, then connecting to a UDMP over 10G, connected to my PC via a 10G switch.
It has previously worked at 140Mbytes/sec or so for steam downloads, with the same setup.
