The first step is identifying the problem. I recommend running a speed test that incorporates testing for bufferbloat like (http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest).The speedtest will give you a grade for bufferbloat. Before I enabled router QoS, I was a solid F. My desktop would pull 300 Mbit/s but completely wreck the internet for everyone else. After enabling QoS, bandwidth dropped to 150 Mbit/s, but I receive an A for bufferbloat and everyone is happy.If bufferbloat is the issue, I'd first recommend exploring your router's QoS. If it happens to be lacking, insufficient, or hampers speed too much, I'd look into Ubiquiti's new EdgeRouter 4 since you're already using Ubiquiti WAP and an unmanaged switch. Users have reported that the edge router 4 will maintain throughput of 400 Mbit/s with QoS enabled. Very good for not breaking the bank.The one thing that has my head scratching is that typically residential gigabit installations won't have bufferbloat issues. If your router contains a builtin switch, it might be worth trying to connect directly to that just to eliminate the possibility that you have a bad switch.
