Unfortunately when I plug my Orbi RBR20 into my ONT, speeds do not exceed 500 Mbs, both download and upload, when connected to the Orbi router via cat. 6 ethernet. Needless to say, speeds are lower when connected via Wi-Fi.
I understood the Orbi supported at least gigabit speeds. Am I missing a beat here? If so would be keen to know, thank you.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?
