RBK853 wifi not hitting speeds

Check to see if the pad is 2x2 MIMO support if it is, then your getting good speeds on the phone and pad. Most 2x2 MIMO devices will never see anything near 900Mpbs on 5Ghz. My 12 Pro Max tops out at around 700Mpbs when fairly close to the RBR. Nature of the beast. 4x4 MIMO can.

Is this normal cause the or is boast wifi speeds up to 6gbps? The device I have tried are an iPhone 14 pro max (wifi 6) iPad Pro 3rd gen and my HP laptop that has an ax card. Is this a limitation of the 5ghz spectrum or are my devices faulty? Thanks
