I'm sorry that no one has commented on this. I was hoping that I would
not have to. ;-)

The info above is slightly incomplete - it's missing the direction of
data transfers (is the slow speed observed in both directions or only in
one direction, and which one?) and whether the problem is also seen
between Router2 and Client2 or not.
As to things to try, decreasing the MTU (say, to 1400) is one of those -
on any of the machines' interfaces involved in the problematic data
transfers. Another is disabling of the various offload parameters with
ethtool(8) (see the man page).
