Update
I did set up the new router that was sent. In talking with Netgear we did 3. things not sure which of the 3 worked but I went from 94mbpl to 200mbps
Here is what we did. Changed chanel on the 5mh to 48, Dumped the app from my IPad, and reinstalled and finally replace the cord between my modem and router. Only problem now is internet drops out from my Macbook, but nothing else. I guess Orbi keeps one thinking.

I am having the same issue with my RBK50... My hardwire speed is 100Mbps and wifi is around 50Mbps....
Using Wi-Fi Sweetspots : 130 Mbps
Wifi Ookla: 55Mbps
Hardwire to Orbi Router. : 85Mbps
Hardwire to Modem : 100Mbps
Did factory reset/ Latest Firmware/ Satellite is 30ft away. Customer support said that this is "normal" and if I wanted faster WiFi speeds I should get a 200Mbps connection... Thanks Tech Support.
