Hello, Tried everything suggested.......moved ISP router (in bridge mode) 8' appart.....connected to Orbi with Cat6 cable......I see no improvement.
Now I have ordered a CAT 8 cable......next will be to use ISP touter as router and Orbi as AP.
Any other suggestions?

Do you need the ISP router?
No. I have the ISP router. Wireless and wired connection from ISP router shows speeds of over 500 Mbps. I have 600 Mbps service.

Can you run your network WITHOUT the ISP router?
The ISP Router/Modem is the Gateway to the internet. Running in Bridge mode. Orbi runnig in Router mode.
So, no, I cannot access the internet without it.
