How to get link speed of 2.4gbps from intel AX200 and Orbi RBK852
i recently purchased the netgear Orbi RBK852. i have an Intel AX200 (gig+) wireless card which supports 2.4gbps at 160mhz channel. however, i am only getting a link speed of 1.2gbps. how do i get my Orbi to connect to this wireless card at the capable speed of 2.4gbps? Orbi is right next to my computer so environment or distance is not a factor.
Note: I am not talking about internet speed or download speed. i an talking about link speed only.

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Orbi AX (WiFi 6) products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Orbi AX and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this "general Orbi" forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Be sure to upate the wifi adapters drivers.
You can't!
The Orbi does not support 160Mhz channel width only 80Mhz.
