Backhaul Speed Check

Question

Hello Everyone.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am new to netgear communitty since I have just bought a Orbi 6 AX4200 (RBK752).Setting up the mesh system was easy and everything was ready in a few minutes.The connection between the sattelite and the router is showing GOOD on the status.Netgear claims that the backhaul speed is 2400mbps, but I don't know where to check it. When I access the configuration page through the web browser and check the port statistics I have this:&nbsp;Port:&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Status:2.4G WLAN b/g/n/ax&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;573.5M5G WLAN a/n/ac/x&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1201MWLAN Backhaul&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1201M&nbsp;Does this sounds about right?I am not an expert but with this information I am guessing my backhaul speed is only 1201mbps.&nbsp;Can someone help me to clarify this issue?&nbsp;Best Regards.&nbsp;Thiago&nbsp;Orbi 6 RBK752 Firmware Version 3.2.16.6_1.4.4&nbsp;

If you look at the specs, there is an + next to it meaning up to or read exceptions, etc. So the backhaul speed connection depends on how far apart the satellite is from the router.

I see. So, to reach 2400mbps the sattelite has to be what? 1 foot away from the router?Is there a way to check this backhaul speed?&nbsp;
