Enlighten me what Merlin firmware did to my asus 68u

I live out in the sticks, and been on viasat for 5 years. Never has an issue with my router with slow speeds, as I was getting a whopping 15mps if that.

Fast forward to last week we get fiber 1 gig, I had to pay about 5k for them to bring it out to me.

So when I hooked it up I was only getting 200mps, I know QQ right, so I setup my workstation as a pppoe point through wan mini port and I got 937mbs.

I was going to just buy a new router but most are delayed until april 23.....covid .....so I upgraded the official firmware, no change, then I tried merlin and now I have the full speed.

This is odd what did merlin do? I already has hw acceleration on and all QoS off.
