If you mean that you're getting 866 Mbps with wireless devices then you're really getting the maximum that you can get out of Orbi.
Please see attached table showing the possible bit rates in Orbi depending on the number of used spacial streams (no, dual or multiple MIMO), channel bandwidth (20, 40 or 80 MHz) and the radio conditions.
The maximum possible rate that you can get from Orbi is 866.7 if using dual MIMO, 80 MHz channels and with best radio conditions (MCS 9).
