Orbi (Rbr40)
I have the RBr40 (AC2200) system. My internet provider speed is 500Mps. When I do a speed test on the Orbi App it shows 92 download & 93 Upload. Is this router capable of reading the 500 speed?

Yes, the router can handle this speed.
Connection rates "just slightly under 100Mbps) are almost always caused by the modem and router auto-negotiating 100M/Full rather than 1000M/Full. This is often because of a problem with the Ethernet cable connecting them. Even a tiny crimp problem on the connectors can cause this.
Can you try a different Ethernet cable?
