What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?

What are the wired speed test results with a wired PC connected to the base?

Wireless speeds depend on device. Max speeds seen around 400-500Mb on wireless depending upon Mfr design of the device.

FW = Firmware

Ask your ISP about the modem Manufacturer and model # your using.

If those are wifi speeds, that's probably as good as you'll get. Are they too slow for things you want to do?

Do these devices get faster speeds if you use them anywhere else?

You might find it useful to search for websites that explain what sort of wifi speeds you can get with various devices.

Remember, they are never as good as the people who sell you the stuff claim.

Oh, and the test sites aren't all that accurate.
