Speed test difference
I don't understand why there is a such difference between the speed test from the Orbi app and the speed test from the router or local device
I signup for 1Gb/s FTTH , but only getting between...

I signup for 1Gb/s FTTH , but only getting between 80Mb/s to 300Mb/s in some rare case.
Doing the speed test from Orbi app giving me around 354/ 470 Mb/s
Doing from my Macbook Pro Retina 15INch 2019, iPhone Max give me betwen 80Mb/s to 220 Mb/s (iPhone local link: 866Mb/s, same for Macbook Pro)
When I do the speed from my server with dual ethernet and speed aggregation connected to the router itself (so local link shoudnt be an issue) I o nly getting the same that the local device speed test. (I actually just got 354Mb/s on my Macbook Pro once).
How come the Orbi app give me a such better speed and if this accurante ?
