I’m having the same issue I doknt know if it’s the firmware update though, I just bought this today. I have full bars when Setup. The upload speed is between 3mbps-9mbps and the download speed is 0-1mbps. I was told I would get 300 mbps, it’s never that good so I atleast though I could get into the 100mbps area but it’s not. Contacted US cellular support they told me I had good internet and to just find the optimal spot for the router. Didn’t really like that answer. So I contacted net gear support and they told me the same thing but to also check SIM card. I don’t have anything to check that though. Really felt like the past 4 hours has been a waste of time. Not very good internet for the high hopes I was given.

Hello Mcgainz,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that your wireless speeds are less than optimal with your LBR20.
Please do the following to resolve your issue:
1. Request a new data SIM from your US cellular provider.
2. Then factory reset your LBR20.
Please navigate to the link below for a step-by-step guide on how to factory reset your Orbi LBR20:
