SXR80 SXS80 4.3.2.100 - Ethernet Port Issues

I have an SXR80 and SXS80 on my home network.  

 

When connected directly to the ethernet ports, I get approximately 150-300 Mbps connection speed maximum.  My internet is well over a gigabit (the Orbi itself shows 1400 Mbps download in the web admin console).  When connected via wi-fi, I get normal (over 700-800+ Mbps) speeds.  I have tried different Ethernet cables, different computers, different ports on the Orbi, etc..

 

The statistics page shows the wired devices connected at a 1000/1000 link speed, so it's not that.  Something very weird going on.

      Better create a new post on the Orbi Pro section, and include more details on how you linked up the WAN/Internet connection, if you re using to links in a LAG to the cable modem for example, or if you have connected a single WAN device operating on a 2.5 GbE link. how else you should ever get whatever speed (Speedtest on the Orbi Pro direct?) speeds beyond of 1 GbE?
