RBR750 slow

I bought an RBR750 a few months ago and checked my speed from ORBI speed test.  It shows 575 which is good since I have around 500.  Then I ran several tests from the internet and they show under 200...

Please explain how you ran tests "from the internet".  What device? What test?

 

In general, devices connected to the router over WiFi cannot achieve the same rate of speed as devices connected with Ethernet cable.

I did run this with my phone connected to the wifi (orbi).
