What are the ethernet connected speeds seen?
What brand and model wireless device are you speed testing with?
Be sure it's connected to the RBR for best results. Can turn OFF the RBS temporarily while testing.
Be sure to speed test using Orbi app, then Ooklas installable speed test app.
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
When I connected the routers, I updated to the latest firmware today. The ethernet speed at last test is 970mb down and 940 up. This is from the Orbi app.Using the Ookla Speedtest app I got 482 down and 534 up. With the Speedtest browser site I got 410 down and 634 up. These numbers aren't very different from what I was used to seeing with my old router. It was usually between 375-500 down. The ISP is i3 Broadband and I'm using their DZS router bringing the fiber optic cable inside the house. Thanks for replying.
