[SOLVED] Network Switch is slowing down Xbox Series X?

Solution
Switch in question: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B007DHTX7Y?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Connections
Router - Xbox Series X
Router - Switch - PC, PS4 and FireStick

Before the switch is plugged in the Xbox has a download speed of around 40mbps and a ping of 23. After the switch is plugged in it's speed goes down to 3mbps and ping 180.

Have I set up something wrong or not selected a setting on the router settings?
More likely it is a bad cable or other traffic through the switch that is impacting. The uplink to the router is shared bandwidth and the WAN bandwidth is shared. The switch is a very "dumb" device. It adds 1ms at most.
