I recently signed up for 1GB internet and was wondering if my model of my orbi can do 1GB please advise.

You can do 1gig wired.

but wireless AC isn't going to hit gigabit speeds regardless of router you have.

wireless AX is just starting to hit gigabit wireless speeds and you have to have a wireless AX device AND be close enough.

No. And most 5Ghz AC class wifi devices max out at around 400-500mpbs depending upon design, HW and support.

AX is seeing near 900Mpbs, however again depending upon design and support of the AX hardware.
