Slow speeds with rbk852 and google fiber

Question

Hi i have google fiber with a 1 gig plan. i recently purchased the rbk852 and connected it to my google fiber network box. I am seeing the same speeds i had when i was using the rbk50 which is about 350-400 mbps. I have hardwired my ax capable 2020 macbook pro to my network box and the rbk852 and get speeds around 900 mbps and checked the Tx Rate on my computer and that is around 1200. Has anyone figured out how to get ax speeds while connecting a rbk852 to a google fiber network box? i am on firmware version&nbsp;V3.2.16.22_1.4.9

Heres what I get with my MBP 2018 at 1300Mpbs about 4 feet away from the RBR:Distance and building materials can be a factor on 5Ghz. Nature of the beast.&nbsp;

This is the fastest I've seen with my set up. Do you mind sharing your settings? I talked to Netgear and cant seem to get any higher. Speed test was done 5 feet away&nbsp;&nbsp;
