I will post soon. When I bought it from Costco it came with 1.X firmware (which version of 1.X I am not sure).

It was during 2.1 that I noticed the WAN to LAN speed being so greatly reduced, so when I rolled back to 2.0.1.4 I hoped it wouldl fix it. It did not. While I cant reproduce my performance from December's original unboxing, I can show that SmallNetBuilder ran performance benchmarks showing that it was hitting int he 924Mbps range in thier labs. (not sure if this link will copy on this forum, but the benchmarks are halfway down under WAN-LAN) TCP https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-reviews/33028-netgear-orbi-reviewed?showall=&start=1
