Ok...didn't understand 😬
lomg story short....all pots allows up to 1gb. Problem is apparently all TVs typically have 10/100 Ethernet , and turns out my laptop also has same. When I connected my Orbi satellite via Ethernet...it was pulling the 400+MBs speeds.

v2.5.1.8 updated last week is installed. i have T470 Lenovo that has 10/100/1GB ethernet port. hooked directly to orbi router port and all i get is around 100mbs. makes no sense.

What connection rate shows up on the Orbi web interface, Advanced Tab Home Page, click on "Show Statistics"?
How is the speed being measured?
