I have an Arris Sb-8200 connected to my RBK-753 ( Costco purchase). I am getting to to router 800-900 migabits using a macbook 2020 using chrome or firefox. The satelites are giving me 300 to 600 migabits depending on how close I am to them.
A couple of concerns here. I am not able to get more the 900 to all ethernet wired connections due to my Arris SB-8200 being rated at 1 gigabit on each of the two ports correct ? Is there a work around this to get 1.2gigabots max ?
Why are the satelites only giving me 300-to 600 migabits ? Prior to this plan I had 400 migabits with 10 doenload and fot consistent 300 to 400 to the entire home.
1) is there a way to get more speed to the main Orbi router without changing the Arris SB-8200 ?
2) Is there anything that can be done to the RBK system to get more strengh out of the satelites ?
