MR60 Satellite Stuck at 100mpbs
If connected to the main router, then I am able to get 400-500 mbps. However when I connect to the MRS satellite, then I get only up to 100mbps. I’ve rebooted, reset, etc. Doesn’t work.

That's a bit thin on diagnostic details.
Connected what and how to the MR60?
How is the MS60 connected to the MR60? Wired or wireless backhaul.
Does this affect every device you try with the satellite?
What do you see when you try this in a web browser and the graphical user interface (GUI)?
- Advanced
- Advanced setup
- Show statistics?
Look at the LAN speeds.
Then the usual boilerplate questions to eliminate some of the more common issues that crop up here.
What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". There may be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware with an app or in the browser interface.
If there is one it might also help if you told people the make and model number of the modem/gateway/ONT that connects this router to the Internet. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
I ask because a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.
The modem is a NETGEAR CM1100
What is the distance between the router 📡 and satellite(s)🛰️? 30 feet or more is recommended in between MR 📡 and MS 🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wired or wirelessly connected.
