CBR 750 Wi-Fi speed slow

I have an Orbi CBR 750 and two satellites on Spectrum gigabit. On the Orbi app, I see 1146 mbps download and 37 mbps upload. On wireless devices, the best I see is 500 mbps download and 34 Mbps upload...

Thanks for the response. The device is an iPhone 13 Pro and 500 Mbps is the best I get on ooakla standing right next to the orbi.

My gaming computer using a Nighthawk A7000 Wi-Fi adapter sitting near to one satellite is getting 235 Mbps download and 38.48 Mbps upload.

  When I plug an Ethernet cable directly into the Orbi satellite from the computer it goes up to 441 Mbps upload and the download is about the same at 36.

    You would be getting good speeds for the devices your testing with at the RBS.
