As a workaround, it should be possible to use cisco just as a switch,
and enable NAT (default) on each of the WiFi.
The 50% slow down is not normal, it must be something wrong with
routers/settings or network setup (bad cables, bad routing, overloaded
wifi's cpu, etc)
Btw, you can always ask M1 to let you manage _your_ router yourselves.
