Re: What’s the expected WiFi speed for RBR 750
I am having the same issue. I also have ATT fiber. I get right at 1gb with a wired connection at the fiber router. If I turn on ATT wifi and connect, I get 900ish mbps up/down. The ORBI internal speed test shows ~950mbps up/down. I am getting 500 mbps down 400 up on Orbi wifi regardless of the distance to the unit and if connected to the router or satellite. When I was adjusting channels, I suddenly dropped to 120 down and 50 up. Nothing I did would fix it, so I wiped it and reprogrammed. I am right back to 500/400. The Orbi is in router mode. I have tested in AP mode with almost exact results. There is no other wifi network in the house and I am on several acres, so there is not a ton of wifi traffic showing on my analyzer. My issue is most certainly in the Orbi, but I am not sure where yet. I am on .31 firmwar

What devices are you testing with?
Does ethernet connected PC show same speed results connected at the RBR?
Has this been a issue all along or just recently?
