Question about the SpeedTest functionality on the Orbi app and orbilogin.com
About the SpeedTest that's available on the Netgear Orbi app and the router (access through the orbilogin.com).. I just wanted to confirm that the speed test only tests the speed between Router and the Internet (some-server)?
Since we're almost always remotely connecting to the Router over wireless (except for wired connection when connected through PC to ethernet), I am assuming the Speed test is between Router and Internet, and NOT between my current device and the internet?
If the above is correct.. then, when we want to test speed between router and internet, use the Orbi App or access the router through the orbilogin.com. And when we want to do a speed test between device and internet, then either use SpeedTest app (for device), or www.speedtest.net for PC
Correct?
