What modem/gateway is the orbi connected to?
Arris S33 cable modem; the modem is plug directly to the Orbi router.
is the tv/receiver hardwired into the router or one of the satellites?
The TV/receiver (Onkyo TX-NR686) is hardwired to a CISCO SG102-24 switch. The switch is hardwired to the Orbi router.
The TV/Receiver is operating using the most current Onkyo firmware.
is ipv6 enabled?
Yes
What actual speeds do you pay for and receive?
948 Mbps down, 24 Mbps up
