I have a RBR750 and ATT 1000. Recent pings have gone up to 20 ms. Using firmware v7.2.6.31My top download speed even next to the router is 700 but I’m usually at 285-300 throughout the house using iPhone 13 Pro Max. Seems like I should be getting more?

So after performing the reset I started tinkering with the server destination in Speedtest. Knowing that speed is related to distance I changed test servers to a closer one and I can achieve rates of 700. This gives me confidence that the problem isn’t the router but with my testing methodology. thanks to all who helped. I think the factory reset still a good best practice. if things change I might revert back to the .21

Is this 700Mbps speed reported by the iPhone 13?

What speed is reported by the Orbi Speed Test (when in router mode)? Both the web interface and the Orbi 'app' will report the same number.

Did I read the conversation correctly that when the RBR50 system was connected to AT&T, the same iPhone 13 reported 400Mbps in the same locations where it now reports 285-300Mbps? (The RBR50 is a WiFi5 system, which does not support WiFi6 (802.11ax) which the RBR750 system does support.

  I admit my testing isn’t very scientific other than today at my in-laws I’m getting around 350 using RBR50 and ATT 500, they live just one mile down from us. Then on my RBR750 I’m barely topping out at 300
  
  I will need to find an extended time to do a factory reset, seems like there is always someone in the house whom has to have internet
