Yes it is a huge jump from wifi 6 and 6E but its not worth the wait for people who are on a budge but still want the best possible.
I had the same issue with being on a 1Gbps plan. They did a free "upgrade" to 1.2Gbps and stopped provisioning my modem correctly. No amount of tech support could figure it out and they wouldn't admit they screwed up.
My speeds shot down to 400Mbps max, so I cancelled and got fiber rather than continue going in circles with them.
You need to call them up, have them check the provisioning, and confirm that the 8210 is still on the "supported" list for the plan you have.
Do a speed test (do NOT use their test or speedtest.net, as they have rigged those with prioritization tricks) by downloading a large file or using speedof.me (they aren't able to rig this one).
If your speeds are still terrible with the tech on the phone and they claim your signal is fine, have them send someone out to check the performance at the tap. Keep in mind the hardware they give the field guys is also somewhat rigged as it can do a lot of things your modem can't and isn't provisioned for any certain speed. It's going to give back maximum potential readings and most of the field guys will just slap the side of it and call it a day while looking cocky.
If your line to the premises is fine, you're back at square one with the modem, but now you have them doing a bunch of finger pointing at the modem being defective.
At this point, you can either try a different modem that they certify is "supported" or force them to downgrade your plan. If you play it right, you might get them to credit you for the difference on the months you've already paid for.

It's 2Ghz it's only 2x2 tho and it only had 512MB flash memory, and I think duo Dore processor instead quad core. Don't quote me on these.

Its 5Ghz number with being able to do around 1.5Gbps over wireless to nearby device makes it pretty unmatched. Then you have well over 1Gbps to devices at long range which again easily makes it a top 5 stand alone router currently available. Just about anything else close to these numbers is going to cost you 2X this price tag.
Also this router is a quadcore not a dual core, but yes onlt 512MB of Ram which again does nothing to the performance aspect since it punches through numbers of router with 1Gig and faster quadcore processors.
Finally something people look for, not me personally but others, very likely this will get Merlin in the near future if not already. I prefer stock firmware.
And in any event 2.4GHz - even though no one uses it inside the house, it's still heavily used for stuff that goes outside, like outdoor cameras, doorbell cameras, etc. But the problem is, even though it's not heavily used, everyone's router still blasts it creating tons of noise.

It seems AX88U is having similar price but that is Wifi6 and dual band only, so it has to be some advantage? 🤔
