Upgraded from GoCoax WF-803M to MA2500D - Not seeing faster speeds

anyone see actually good speed test to outside servers.. with my 2500d when i transferred over to a 2.5gb switch i can get 2gb in multiple stream iperf but a single stream only gets like 300-400 meg.. if i plug it into the old 1gb switch a single stream actually is better? 800-900 meg..
unfortunately i need single stream performance as using as a backchannel.. i dont understand why it is slower using 2.5gb/10gb connection switches..

thinking it doesnt like whatever chipset is in my trendnet 10gb switches

same issue if i plug direct into a 2.5gb port on my asus router.. slower speedtest and iperf single streams than if plugged into a 1gb port.. so in my opinion the m2500d are not fit for purpose!!!!!

This sounds a lot like frustrations I had trying to get the advertised speeds out of "2.5G" MoCA adapters: speed as-advertised in one direction, but barely a tenth of that in the other, according to single-stream iperf3 tests. The last stuff I posted about it seems to have been in this thread, and there were others reporting similar results. It seems that a lot of those adapters must be using identical chipsets with identical performance quirks, and those chipsets don't play nice with certain connected equipment.
