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.

Sorry, meant to post this in the main channel, not the Beta forum. Not sure if someone can move it.

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?
