RBR20 speed issue
When I run a speed test wired to my modem, I get around 850 mbps per second upload and down. Over WiFi and wired directly to the port on my RBR20 I'm only getting 85-90 mbps. Any ideas?

What make and model modem are you referring to? How is your RBR20 hooked up tp your modem, directly or via switch?

You might update FW to v16 since thats more recent. Factory reset and setup from scratch after loading it.
I would power OFF the modem/ONT for 1 minute as well during the reset of the RBR and then back ON.
Do you know if the ONT has a built in router and wifi or not?
