Orbi RBR50 wire connection why so slow...

Hi,

I have plan 300Mbps. Before I direct wire connect from my modem , speedtest.net get 300 DL/UpL speed. But when I connect my pc via Orbi RBR50, speedtest just get 100Mbps speed. Just the wifi speed had increase. Before connect wifi from my phone via modem , speedtest is 45Mbps. Now via Orbi RBR50 is 100Mbps. Anyone know what problem for the wire connection?

  • Are you speed testing the speedtest app in the router or from a web browser? 

    What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the Orbi is connected too? Built in router here by chance?

      i had test both speed test, even app in router or web browser, both is the same about 100Mbps DL/UpL. My ISP(http://www.convergeict.com/ , Philippines Country) used the Huawei HG8245H fiber wifi modem(http://support.huawei.com/enterprise/en/access-network/echolife-hg8245h-pid-8952133), and my plan is 300Mbps DL/UpL. If i direct connect wire from Huawei modem to my pc, used web browser speed test can get 300Mbps DL/UpL.
