RBR20 Speed Test
I just switched to Cox Gigiblast internet. I started with their Panoramic Wifi router but decided to switch to Netgear. So I purchased the Netgear DOCIS 3.1 Modem (CM1000-100NAS) and the Orbi RBRT20 ...
Factory reset and setup from scratch with the RBR. This time do not speed test with the built in QoS speed test. Use a wired PC and run a speed test using Ooklas installable app to run the test.
If your using a wireless device, this will usually max out at around 400-500Mpbs since most devcies are limited by this. AX mode devices may see higher speeds however Orbi RBR20 isn't AX supporting. You should see near 900Mpbs with a wired PC though.
Just out of curiosity how is doing the factory reset different than setting it up from scratch. I didn't say when, but just brought and set this up yesterday.
I case there is a mis configuration and also the Speedtest app seen in QoS has been known to cause problems or be inaccurate. Just a troubleshooting step.
