RBR750 Upload speed

Hi,

 

As titled I am having issues with my upload speed on my Orbi Router.

When I test internet speed from the Orbi router admin page I get 

My internet speed to my modem is 1Gig down and 750 Mbps up - I tested directly from my modem to ISP and I can verify I get this speed.

I am using a PPPoE service and I have no router functionality on the modem (WiFI and DHCP are disabled). The Orbi has my ISP login information and is connecting to the internet properly.

 

How can I debug my upload speed and see what is the bottleneck?

 

 

As a follow up I've noticed that since I've installed the Orbi I'm seeing a drop across the board on upload speeds over WiFi as well (about 100 Mbps slower than my previous setup). I'm hoping solving the upload speeds from the Orbi will help but I suspect I will need to debug the WiFi upload as well.

 

Thank you
