The fiberbox is without a router. The brand og the fiberbox is Comega. According to the ISP it is One og the most stable around.
i know that wireless is not a good measure point, but with our former ISP and the setup there we had no problems in obtaining a speed of 400 mbs in our download even through wireless.

couple things. Were you using the Orbi with your prior ISP setup? If so, whenever people switch isp's, its always a good idea to reset the devices and start back from factory settings.
I know you say the fiber doesn't have routing functions. Do you have the model number on it?

I have tried to attach a picture of the comega box. I can’t see any model number on it.
the Orbi was reset when we switched ISP. The firmware version is the newest one.

Hi again all.
I just tried for fun to log on my orbi router because I have heard something about QoS settings. So tried to go there and run the speedtest that is located there. This give my speed to 477,8 down and 541,44 up, which is much closer to the 500/500 plan I have. So why on earth can't I reach these numbers when doing a speedtest connected directly to my orbi router with a wire?
