I've been running CAPsMAN with RB3011 and 2 cAP AC and 1 wAP AC. There is an unmanaged TP Link PoE Switch that powers the CAPs. I have 300/300mbps connection with 100/100 backup link. I've tested all the cables and none seem to be causing the problem. I've also tried using the included PoE injector directly to RB3011 but there is no difference in performance. I've been having weird speed dropouts across the network. From what I've read so far, CAPsMAN is known to cause some speed drop but my situation is kind of absurd. If I connect directly to the RB3011 through an ethernet cable, I get the full 300/300 speed test. However, when I connect to the wifi, I am only getting like 60/70mbps speed test. Sometimes, after a reboot, the speed may occasionally shoot up to 160/140mbps but after a few minutes of the system being on, it again drops to 60/70mbps. I suspected that a cable might be bad but all CAPs and RB3011 report the link as 1Gbps and hence, It is beyond my understanding.
Here is an export of my CAPsMAN config. can share other config if required.

Any help is highly appreciated.
I've tried enabling local forwarding and Client to Client forwarding to no avail. I hope to get a better understanding of what is wrong with my config and if it is possible to get at least half of the speed that I pay for over wifi.
Thanks in advance
