Terrible wifi speed on Orbi RB750 + 2 satellites
I have an Orbi RB753 setup with an RBR750 (firmware V4.6.5.14_2.0.54) and 2 RBS750's on the same firmware version. I also have a Cisco VPN router connected to the Orbi providing VPN services to a wo...
And this is with the wireless device connected to the RBR and the RBS turned off?
What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?Be sure that WMM is enabled. Also try setting CTS to 2347. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
What is the connection rate seen on the Mac if you press the OPT and then right click on the wifi icon on the top tool bar?
And to be sure that wired speed connected at the RBR is to spec?
I powered off the Cisco router and retested. 21.0 down, 21.3 up.

Using 6 on 2.4ghz and 44 on 5ghz. One neighbor. WMM is enabled.
CTS changed to 2347 and that seems to have fixed the problem. Now getting 479.10 down and 22.27 up.
Thanks for all the help!!
Good to hear. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
