RBR50 and Satellite - where is the setting to upgrade the allowed speed in?
How to change line in speed? I changed from 100 megs to 1,000 megs from ISP. Router needs to have setting changed and I can't find where to do that.

Gigabit ethernet ports "autosense" the correct speed by communicating between themselves.

The Orbi WAN port typically connects to modems with gigabit ethernet ports at 1000M/Full no matter what throughput the modem provides.
The negotiated speed is shown on the Orbi web interface, Advanced Tab. Click the blue box "Show Statistics" (see attached image)
