Slow wifi speeds
Hello, I live in the UK and have one gigabyte broadband with Virgin Media.My RBR850 - Orbi Tri-band Mesh WiFi 6 Router(RBR850) is plugged into the Virgin Hub 4. I have one Orbi satellite upstairs...
Wifi won't hit the same speeds as wired.
there's more network overhead, interference, and device limitations over wifi.
But wired doesn't have those same issues.
So the wired/wireless speeds are an expectation. you can read more about it here:
Understand Wi-Fi 4/5/6/6E (802.11 n/ac/ax) (duckware.com)
seems a little off for the mac to have a 975mbps link rate as the RBR50 has a 866mbps fronthaul (link connection)
