Slows down to 20Mbps from what... ?
Where I live, fibre broadband is still a bit of a novelty and speeds aren't that great.
But I consistently get over 36Mbps, which is about 94% of the theoretical (wired) maximum.

Lim, according to your signature you are running Kong, which has no WiFi issues to my knowledge. It is only the BS builds that are broken.
On BS (every build since mid-Jan) I was getting a max download of 24Mbps over Wireless-AC, on my 100Mbps ISP circuit. As soon as I switched to Kong, with exactly the same configuration, my Wireless-AC download jumped to 107Mbps. Prior to mid-Jan, BS builds delivered the full 107Mbps.
Explain that...!
I have since increased my ISP circuit to 200Mbps and Kong delivers 208Mbps over Wireless-AC.
Note that my ISP is VirginMedia cable, although I have the VM SuperHub configured as just a modem connected directly to my WRT1900AC v1.
