To see the signal levels go to 192.168.100.1 > login > Connections tab. See here for more info. To see the connection stats go to 192.168.0.1/RST_statistics.htm. Should look like picture below.

    If it's easier, try a direct connection to the MB8611 and look at your ethernet connection rate from Network connections. Windows Key + R > NCPA.CPL > Right click on Ethernet and left click on status > Look for Speed. If that is Gigabit then run a Cox speed test. However I would post your signal levels first. If you can't upload a image upload it to Imgur and post the link but to upload. To see how to upload, see here.
