RBK352 less than 10mbps download and upload speed
Hey there, ISPs quoted download speed is 881 mbps and upload is 497 mbps, and on average I'm getting about 3-6mbps on both wifi and lan. Have reset the modem, still did not fix. A bit lost...

Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.

What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
