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

I have both radios enabled for AX mode though I problably don't need it.
manual channel 1 and 36(40) due to something in FW causing 40 to be used whichc we are waiting on NG for more info on this.
CTS set to 64, I haven't tried 2347 to see if this might change anything.
One thing I check on my iPhone 12 Max is that I notice that the connection rate seems lower that it should be for AX supporting phone::smileyfrustrated:
Thought my ASUS GT-AX11000 in wireless bridge mode sees 1800Mpbs mostly and gets 900Mbps:

Thank you. I get the same thing in my 12 pro when checking with wifi sweetspots but i dont actually get anything close to that. Is youre router is plugged into the google fiber network box? I am essentially getting the same speeds that i was getting with my Rb50 which is pretty upsetting.

NG CAX80 gateway im mode mode. I have cable ISP here.
Yes, I get 900Mpbs on the wire.
Wondering if there is a iPhone iOS issue vs Orbi AX Connection rate. We should be seeing higher connection rates for iPhones that support AX mode I believe. :smileywink
