What is your Orbi connected to and is it also a router? Often when we see these wired speed degradations downstream from the Orbi, it's because of Double NAT and the speed hit is due to the inefficiency of two routers operating in series. See the Double NAT references in the Community FAQ: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-WiFi-6-AX-and-WiFi-6E-AXE/Community-FAQ-My-Orbi-speeds-are-slow-inconsistent-and-don-t-my/m-p/1984305/highlight/true#M7944
