What's the max speed on the RBK753?

I recently had Ting fiber installed at my house, and I'm supposed to be getting 2Gbps symmetrical speeds, but when I run a SpeedTest from within Orbilogin.net or the Orbi app, I'm only showing 1Gbps. I have an RBK753 system (RBR750 + 2 RBK750 satellites - firmware version v7.2.6.31) and the RBK750 is hard-lined from the fiber ONT using Cat6 Ethernet.

 

Since the SpeedTest is running at the Orbi and isn't impacted by WiFi, I'm curious what the max input speed the RBK753 can handle -- is it only 1Gbps, or should it be able to take 2Gbps from the fiber?

The 750 series is only capable of 1Gb speeds UP and Down due to the max connection rates for the WAN and LAN ports. If you want 2Gb seemlessly from both WAN and LAN ports, you'll need to review Orbi 960 or 970 series.

Thanks! I thought that might be the case but wanted to make sure.
