Orbi RBK50 Satellite Issues

Ahh, makes sense! Do you think that a wired 100Mbps would get more stable performance than the 225Mbps over wifi? I was having buffering issues with the built in netflix app while using the wired from satellite and content not loading to full quality - was dropping down to 720P and below it seemed like at times. I also do have the ability to do a MOCA set up directly to the router but not sure if that is overkill. For additional context, the set up I have is an LG C2 and PS5.
I did another test of speeds on the ps5 which has a gigabit ethernet port and it matches performance I was seeing on the TV. Have tried with a couple ethernet cables (all are cat 5E) Speeds below:
Wired from satellite: 50-60 Mbps
Wifi from satellite: ~225Mbps
Wifi from router (satellite disconnected): ~225Mbps
I'm getting ~850-900Mbps down and up at my router.
