RB50 and RBS wire backhaul speed

I have the RB50 with one satellite using wire backhaul.  Standing right next to the RB50 (router) and do a speed test can go as far as 200Mbps (using the latest firmware 2.1.4).  However, when I stand right next to the satellite, I am getting max 60Mbps..(wireless backhaul is some what the same or worse because the distant and wall).  I that all I get.  For wire backhaul I though I'll be do much better than the wireless.

    What mobile device are you using to test next to the Satellite?

    What speed test app are you using to test?

    Connect a wired PC to the satellite and speed test with a browser and speedtest.net on the PC thru the satellite.
