Orbi AC3000 or really AC1266?
Orbi appears to be deceptively labeled as a AC3000 router using the following math:
AC3000 (1733 + 866 + 400Mbps)
However the end user portion of that is only this part:
(866 + 400Mbps) = 1,266 Mbps
Shouldn't this really be labeled as an AC1266 router, since the 1733Mbps band can't be used for anything except satellite to satellite communication?
Gotta love marketing folks
Model: Orbi High-Performance AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi System (RBK50)

in reality it should be advertised as 867M as that is the highest attainable sync with any one connected client
marketing is marketing
