That’s the weird thing - it shows up with a solid line/wired and is rated as “good” On the web interface and with a green indicator in the app.
From appearances it should be functioning.
Overall there seems to be an incredible diminution of speeds on the Orbi WiFi - even the router shows no more than 50-60, sometimes a spike to 100, speeds while plugged directly into the FiOS router. And the pool house is another order of magnitude below everything else.
