I installed my Orbi yesterday and it works fine between my floors and with laptops, however my mobile devices are getting exactly half of the speed they should be. On my R7000 they get my full 100 they should, but mobile devices are right around 50. I've turned off WMM, but that cut the half in half again. I turned beamforming and MU-MIMO on and off, but no change.
Any thoughts? I'm on the latest firmware. Thanks!

Same here, wired I get 230 Mbps and over Wi-Fi it seems capped right around 50 Mbps. Turning off QOS or WMM takes it down to about 25 Mbps. It has been like this for months and is incredibly frustrating in addition to the connection drops.
BobertSaget, that's my situation and speeds exactly. And right, has nothing to do with the satellite. I did find that if I reboot the Android phone or tablet I get full speeds when it reconnects which is odd. Cycling WiFi doesn't work, only a reboot of the device.
bsantucci, that's really interesting about the restart I have never noticed that but I tried it and had the same result as you. I wonder how long it will stay at these speeds until it drops again. It's strange that it's either one speed or another, never in between.
