Slow ORBI wired speeds
I have the orbi rbk22, the wireless internetspeeds work flawlessly, but when i try to connect my laptop to the orbi via ethernet, the speed is capped at 100mpbs when i look in network and sharing center. My internet plan is 500mbps download which i get connecting to my modem, but i get capped at 100mbps when i connect to the orbi. WHen i checked in prpoerties in network and sharing center, it also says ipv6: no internet access, while ipv4 works. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Does your ISP support IPv6? If yes do you have the correct IPv6 in the web GUI under >> ADVANCED >> Advanced Setup >> IPv6 ?

ShankarHokie ekhalil My isp is Rogers and yes it does supports ipv6 as well as my network card because ipv6 work and i get the full 500mbps when i connect to my isp modem. I went on to the web GUI and put IPV6 to auto config but it still says ipv6 no internet connnectivity on my laptop. And how do i disable daisy chain? And another piece of info which could be useful is that i connect the laptop to the main orbi not the satellite.

- Who is your ISP? Do they support IPV6?
- IPV6 should not matter for speeds. I get the full speed on my desktop via ethernet and IPv4
- Have you checked if your network card is capable of 1Gbps? Most old cards are only 10/100
- I had similar slow LAN speed and I disabled the daisy chain topology and I got full speed
- On the router Advanced => Advanced Setup => IPv6, choose internet connection type as DHCP, IPv6 DNS as automatically get from ISP, and LAN stup as autocnfig
- Then test at https://test-ipv6.com/ to see if you get 10/10

ShankarHokie when i ran the test-ipv6 it came with a result saying "no ipv6 address detected", but it work when i plug it into my isp modem.
