RBE771 slow download
I'm having the same issue but everything I've tried is over a wired connection - no wireless. This is what I've experienced. I've just started using Ziply Fiber and signed up for the 2000Mbps...

During my testing I tried several different Ookla servers. Same results.
One other note - if you search the Netgear forum there are other similar complaints.

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.
What Windows version are you using?
And speed testing at the Fiber box with a ethernet connected device see's over 1Gb?
Are you using Ooklas web site in a browser or there speed test app on Windows?
