So after multiple days with the orbi team my issue of the router giving slow wrong speeds has been fix with this new update I am going to continue watching to see if anything else was broken in the process but I can confirm now that this new firmware fix that particular wifi issue.

Thanks for taking the time to record and post the Speed Test results from the router. This does seem to indicate that the issue is related to the WiFi connection of this specific device.
Some cell phones report the "Link Rate" of their WiFi connection. The Orbi 'app' Device Manager also reports it.
