I have ATT giga fiber BGW 210 connected to ORbi RBR840 through IP bypass, ORbi in AP mode. While the download speeds on my iPhone 11 Pro Max are close to 800, the upload even just 1 ft away is 80 - 100. I have wired my laptop to ORbi Router and have seen 800 + both ways so ORbi receives great speeds from the ATT router but why is WiFi UPLOAD so poor or should I take this for granted? Are there any settings on the ORbi that could affect the UPLOAD even 1 ft away? Both the Router and 1 Satellite are on the latest firmware.
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft? What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
Thanks for replying. I have tried the same with my M1 IPad Pro but the same UPLOAD speed even from a foot away - 80-90 MBs. The download is 800 + but upload really sucks. The satellite is < 30 ft away from the router and is wired but the best upload speed has been about 100 or so less than a feet away from the router.
Have done all that but upload is really weak compared to download. I have reset and set up the system from scratch several times but that has not improved my upload; one thing I have not checked if it is different in router mode vs AP mode, which is what I have currently set but I doubt it. Is there anything in the statistics or any logs that could point an issue?
