How are you testing?
You won't see anything like the Hub speed on WiFi.

@Savi1 Broadband spedds are always quoted in Mega/Giga Bits per second (Mb/s) not Mega Bytes per second MB/s as there are 8 bits in a byte 2500Mb/s is equal to 312MB/s.

Re: Internet speed is 300 MBPs
And, for example, the Steam client always displays in megabytes per second (MBs) rather than megabits per second (Mbs) by default, so effectively under-reports speed by a factor of eight: this frequently confuses users.
