Constant speedtest in web client

(My router model is Orbi RBR850 / AX6000 - menu won't let me pick that)

 

I am seeing "constant" speed when I do speedtest in the webclient under Advanced > QoS. Firmware V3.2.16.6_1.4.4. Always the same 491.37Mbps download. I am connected to the 2.5gbps port, have a 1gbps speed limit and often see higher speeds than this on hardwired devices with ookla. 

 

Anyone else seeing this? Super strange and likely a bug in the new firmware?

    Same for me.  The speed test has loads a test last run in July of 2020.  The speed test in the mobile app fails as well.

    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

    What browser are you using? 

    Does the speed results show differently if you use a wired PC and Ooklas isntallable speed test app on the PC?
