2 Gbps internet service and orbi RBK852

Hey guys -

 

I have a Orbi RBK852 mesh system.  My isp recently upgraded my service to 2Gbps. I am not getting wired speeds past 950Mbps. I was under the assumtion that the Orbi would be good for atleast up to 2.5Gbps.  The more I am diving into specs is looks like all of the ports on the router and the satellite are 10/100/1000Mbps output. The WAN port says 2.5Gbps.  Long story short. Is my router not capable of 2Gbps speeds?

 

It seems crazy that my isp would have faster speeds than any of my equipment can handle.  

 

Pls. advise.///

  • Yes, wirelessly with something AX supporting and 4x4 MIMO antenna supporting. 

    No, wired since the LAN ports are only rated for 1000Mpbs.
