ok so
LAN speed test shows write 41.4 Mbps read 16.4 Mbps how ever windows says its 58Mbps minimum
my Internet speed is about 16Mbps down and 12Mbps up wired its in the 80Mbps down 12Mbps up
signal strength is 100% quality is 90+
there are other networks nearby https://ibb.co/iiJ1ay
maybe channel 3 would be better

hardware

D-Link DIR-605L
RNX-N150UBEv3
 
What is the distance you were from the router when you took this? How many walls were between you and the router?

That will make a difference. I get 100% signal quality on my 5GHz band through two walls about 15 feet away but instead of the 2100Mbps I get around 500Mbps.

And yes it looks like channel 3 would very much be the better channel. It looks to have way less overlap.

The best solution would be to get a newer router that will automatically jump to the cleanest channel and have a 5GHz band which has more open channels.
