Orbi 9 series only supports 2.5Gb on the LAN side.
10Gb may incur additional HW and cooling as well as at this speed, more heat is generated.
If you only have a 5Gb port on the ISP modem then 10Gb would not be really needed at the LAN side anyways. Not much that can really saturation the connection currently as well. No ISP offers 10Gb ISP speeds anyways. Won't see this for a few more years anyways. 2.5 is just being seen in "some" ISP services.
