Orbit RBR20 - Slow Wifi
Problem: ISP plan was upgraded to 1000M, but wifi could not reach the promised speed
Recently I changed my plan from 300M to 1000M. I tested the speed using wired desktop and the speed was able to reach the promised speed 915/903 (download/upload). I also tested the speed of the Orbi router using the in-app speed test feature while the router was connected to the ISP modem, the speed was fine to me 906/883 (download/upload). However, the wifi speed I tested was only 415/252 using iphone XR and closed to the primary router; it was even slower when connecting to the satellite (296/379).
When it was 300M plan, the wifi speed is close to 300 (241/286). The working environment is the same, i.e. 3 to 4 devices are connected. The only changed factor is the ISP promised speed. What is the cause of the problem here? and what can I do to improve the wifi speed to close to the promised speed (1000M)?
Router model: RBR20 with one satellite
Firmware Version: V2.7.3.22
Thanks & Regards
