Orbi RBR50 ac 3000 is limiting 1GB downstream from Spectrum router to 500mbps in Orbi App Speed Test
Orbi RBR50 v2 mesh system with 2 satellites Firmware Version V2.3.5.30 I just upgraded to Spectrum Lightning Hi Speed Internet with 940.95 mbps Down and 41.60 mbps up measured today by Spectr...
and what modem are you using?
Using the Spectrum "No Brand Listed" modem model # E31T2V1
I believe it is the newer one with the Broadcom chip, as there appeared to be 4 manufacturers of it
Armor, Circle apps enabled?
What happens if you directly connect your wired PC to the modem? Speeds good here?
Once you get it updated, try a facotry reset. Then during the re-install leave traffic monitoring, access control, qos, parental controls, armor all deactivated.
Bacially, once its reset, setup your wireless and internet connection and test it.
You can also hardwire into the modem to ensure you're getting full speeds.
Yes Armor not parental controls.....Great ideas...I will give it all a go once I wrap up work here...I really appreciate it..I will post back this evening with results....

.So parts to update.
1. The app says the firmware is up to date and upon looking up on google, as you already mentioned, no it's not...so I need to solve for that.
2. Plugged in my laptop directly to spectrum modem and got 900 down....so it is definitely at the Orbi...
More to come after I figure our the firmware issue
You can find most current FW code here:
I always look at NGs support site for updated information on FW updates.
Ok, Glad you get to spec speeds at the modem.
Try the update, factory reset the RBR and walk thru the setup wizard. Do no enable Access Controls, Armor, Circle or Traffic meter. Go right in and speed test with Ooklas installable speed test app.
