RBR40 Limited to 866Mbps

I Have 1GB Service with Frontier, but My Orbi RBR40 Limits Bandwidth To 866

Mbps. Anyone Else Experiencing That?

If you look at its spec sheet, that is its specs. 

It has a 866mbps 5ghz backhaul, a 866mbps 5ghz front haul, and a 400mbps 2.4ghz. 

https://www.netgear.com/images/datasheet/orbi/RBK40.pdf

 

so its not "limited to" but is what its actual link speed is. 

 

Even the 50 series only has the 866mbps front haul but it has a wider 1733mbps backhaul for connection between router/satellites.

I do see it. And it shows up to 866mbps. As I went over earlier for the fronthaul.

Fronthaul: the 5ghz you can connect devices to

Backhaul: link between the router and the satellites that is dedicated just for that.
