Literally getting 100x faster download on my phone than my connected computer to the satellite. How?
Okay so I finally got the router and the satellite finally setup. My computer is connected via ethernet to the satellite. I have no wireless card for it so thats my only choice. Ran a couple speedtes...
I'm using whats built into the mobo. But I've gotten well over 150 down from my apartment in Philly and that place had terrible wiring. Cat 6 like everyone else. Never messed with LAN settings so i don't see how that can be affecting me. Haven't plugged it into the main router, I build my own computers and I'll say its two years old. Windows 10 pro
Hmmmm.... I connected my laptop directly to the Orbi router ethenet port and got my full max speed (wireless automatically disableled). I then connected to the Orbi satellite ethernet to see what speed I could get, but for some reason, it did not establish an ethernet connection but stayed in wireless mode. I could not connect to the satellte ethernet to do a speed compare for some reason....
After my last message I had to run out to my apartment and grab the last of my things. As I was driving I remembered I never reset my computer after setting up the orbi. Low and behold I reset the computer, do a speed test, and I'm getting 220mbps. I'm not sure what reseting the computer does that fixes this issue
