Orbi 960 - How to determine wired backhaul speed

Hello! I I have a wired network with both Gigabit and 2.5Gbe ports... and I think I have my Orbi sats on the 2.5Gbe ports... but would like to verify what speed they are connected at. Is there a way ...

Ya that's the only check on the RBR to see the connection rate between the RBR and RBS. 

Can connect a non managed multi gig LAN switch in between to visually see the link rate. XS505M and GS110MX work great with the 9 series.

    Interesting - maybe I am staring at that connection rate info, but I don't see it - where would I find that on the router web page?

        Thanks FURRYe38 - so this is what I have, I assume the backhaul is "LAN"? Do I have this set up wrong? Seems I may have the RBSs wired backhaul on the 1 GB port? Is a change advised?

         

        EDIT: Never mind - I see it at the bottom! Doh!
