Xbox X wired upload is slow
My son's Xbox X, connected to Orbi RBR 850 in wired mode, upload speed is 10 times slower than connected to the ISP router in Pass through mode. My service is capable of 950 Mbps download and 950 Mb...

Thank you
When this problem is fixed after future FW update(s) please let me know so I can check the discussion of this issue as solved.
Are the other issues solved after the latest FW update?
I haven't tested my RBS 50 satellites wirelessly with RBR 850 yet but it will be nice to be able to do that if people don't have an Ethernet wired backbone like me. I will also benefit from the wireless capability with older models, especially in the backyard during the summer, since the only Orbi outdoor satellite model RBS 50Y is unfortunately only wireless with no Ethernet port.

Will definately let you know. Hoping the new year will bring some good bug fixes.
I have no idea when NG will be making the RBS50s compatible with Orbi AX wirelessy. We'll have to keep an eye out on the release notes as they come out. Many others have been asking abou this as well.
For now, I wouldn't bother with RBS50s unless you can wire them up.
As a suggestion, if you don't think the Orbi AX is working in router mode, I would use it in AP mode, if and when you seem to encounter odd problems. I would also file a support ticket to at least let NG know about issues you seem to notice. I have to run my Orbi AX in AP mode for now until NG gets these NAT problems sorted out.
My speeds are mostly near 900Mbps DOWN and always 50Mbps UP for my system. I don't have the same speed on the UP so I can't tell if the system is working at the capaticty or not. Something NG can look into.
