Sorry, I meant that the beta firmware still has a problem. The orbi app and frontier app sees the 900+/900+ now, not the speedtest done on speedtest app, fast.com and others still cap me at 600.
- michsuSep 09, 2021ApprenticeMaybe the 750 model is not strong enough to do gigabit internet plan.. The other guy said you needed the 850 router and satellite to get the full power past 1000/1000, or is that still not enough?
- Gatorade2000Sep 09, 2021Apprenticebecause that is over wireless and your devices have a speed limit too

Besure you power OFF the ISP Modem for 1 minute, factory reset the RBR and RBS after loading the beta FW, power ON the ISP modem then setup the RBR and RBS from scratch. Other users ARE reporting that the speed test results are fixed on the Orbi app and on board RBR speed test app. The 7 series is cable of near 900Mbps or just over ON wired ethernet only. The ethernet ports are 1000Mpbs connection rated ONLY so you'll not see anything much over 950Mpbs at all due to the LAN Ports being 1000Mpbs. Same goes for the 8 series, however the 8 series CAN seen over 1000Mbps speeds on wireless since the WAN port on 8 series is rated at 2.5Gb and wireless connection rates support up to 2400Mpbs on 5Ghz AX. And if you have a AX supporting devices that supports 2400Mbps 4x4 MIMO.
