RBK753 Wifi Speeds

Set-up

Sky Gigafast product installed to the house. (900Mbps)

Sky Hub 4 (SR203) connected via CAT6 to ONT.

Netgear ORBI RBK753 (in AP Mode) connected via CAT6 to Sky Hub 4.

x2 Netgear ORBI RBK753 satellites successfully deployed with 'Blue' LED, confirming 5GHZ connection type to Router

 

Speed Test

Results of both a Wired Speed Test (connected to ORBI) or via ORBI App (iOS) confirm router speeds of 800Mbps

Running a Speedtest from devices connected via WiFi to either satellites or router return speeds ~200Mbps to 400Mbps

 

Question

Are the WiFi speed test results 'good' or should I be expecting closer to 800Mbps?

        Ok, I have a 12 pro max as well though MBP is only 2018 so no AX on it.

        (600 + 1200 + 2400Mbps)†

        1200Mpbs on 5Ghz so nearest you see is around 400-500Mpbs while nearest the RBR.
