RBK50 with WiFi 6(802.11AX) Clients
I’m trying to determine if it’s the Orbi or IPhone 12s. I just recently purchased an IPhone 12 and 12 pro. When I sit in the same spot an Ookla Speedtest run serially is showing drastically slower ...
- Oct 25, 2020So I tested again this morning with same server. Looks like there was a settling in period of about 48 hours. Speeds on the 12s are now inline with the older devices.
I did notice the connected client list on the Orbi had multiple entries for the 12s and even our Apple watches . I’m wondering with the new MAC randomization if during setup IOS may have been confusing Orbi with all the reboots and reconnects needed when installing the IOS backup during setup.

I posted here to see if other Orbi users have attached WiFi 6 clients and if so what speeds they may be seeing. Trying to see if it’s Apple or potentially Orbi.
Thanks for the explanation. Sounds like Apple's "got some splainin to do."
