Router won't go past 600Mbit on 1gbit connection.

Howdy folks, I'm hoping there's still plenty of DIR-645 owners around, I'm wondering if anyone else is on a 1Gbit internet connection with this router? I'm finding that when I run a speedtest it won't go past 600Mbit if I'm connected using the router but if I'm connected directly to the fiber modem/router from the ISP then I'm getting almost 1Gbit on speedtest.net

This is via the DIR-645 router:



This is via the ISP's fiber router:



I've tried resetting the firmware to the factory defaults but I'm not really sure what else might help so don't want to go playing around willy nilly!

Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions :)

I'm pretty sure none of that stuff is enabled on the 645, never heard of "GameFuel".

If the main ISP fiber ONT is being used I recommend using the 645 as a wired LAN to LAN AP and not a router:
Turning a router into an AP.

I have a home network of PC - Media player - Smart TV so I use the router for the whole home network so I can transfer video files to the movie player in a different room to watch on the TV, not sure how turning the router into an AP would benefit me, sure I would use the fiber modem and remove the Dlink router completely but that defeats the object of having bought a (supposed) gigabit router, plus the router is more configurable than the ISP's fiber modem.
