Orbi artificial limiting speed?
Hello all,
I have an orbi RBR50 and RBS50 connected via ethernet one to the other. I am at the moment using modem mode but this also happens with AP mode.
My macbook, iphone, mac etc are now limited to around 90mb while before and right after reboots i get 300+ . From my provider i have 1gb internet and in the internal test for on the orbi i get 960+. By cable there is no issue.
i have 17 devices upt to 24 connected all the time.
This looks like some sort of cap, i have chek and they are connect via 5ghz also. i did noticed that when im closer to the router and not the satellite i tend to get better speeds but not always.
Above are my configs.
Hope all are well.
Kind regards,
