Fios gigabit with RBR750 - conflicting speed reads

Hello,

I recently upgraded to the FIOS gigabit connection, and while the Orbi speed test picks up nearly a gig in upload/download speeds (in the app), all the other tests online seem to only pick up half that (including the Ookla test that Orbi says it was using).

 

I'd switched to Orbi with my last plan (500 mbps), because it just didn't make sense to pay to rent the equipment and end up paying more than it cost me to just purchase my own equipment. So, as of now, other than the Verizon modem, all other parts (router and satellites) are Orbi.


Do I need to change anything in my settings to make sure that the speed tests consistently? I tried rebooting the router, and that didn't make a difference.
