Orbi RBR5v2 satellite speeds. One at 48 and the other at 7. Reset to factory settings, no change.

Question

I have a&nbsp;Orbi RBR5v2.&nbsp; When I have one satellites connected it will preform to the same speed as the router.&nbsp; One I have both satellites connected, one will have the speed of the router...say 48 and the other will only reach a speed of 9 at best.&nbsp; I have reset the router to factory settings and setup the system from the begining.&nbsp; No change. Firmware is uptodate.&nbsp; Looking for a fix as I need both satellites to run at the same speed.&nbsp; Any help out there?

Please excuse my question:&nbsp; Where are you seeing the "7" and "48" values?

When I go out and do a speed check.&nbsp; These are the numbers I get for down load and up load speed.&nbsp; What I showed is the down load speed.

Thanks for the explanation.&nbsp; I was distracted by the coincidence that "7" is a common 2.4G channel and "48" is a common 5G channel for the Orbi.&nbsp;Which Speedtest are you using?&nbsp; (iPhone, Android, Windows, ?)

https://www.speedtest.net/&nbsp; &nbsp; I feel the problem is not with the satellite, but with the router itself.&nbsp; I can change the satellites around and end up with the same issue, so it can't be the satellite.&nbsp; I thought by resetting the system to the factory original settings the problem would fix it self, but did not.&nbsp; &nbsp;Pretty sure the issue is the router and some setting in it which needs to be changed.&nbsp; It is hard to believe this is a one only issue and there has to been other folks who have or had the same problem.
