Well, it works but not with good results. Everything is up and running but speed tests are all over the place and my computer is as slow as molasses. When I run the speed test from within the ORBI interface it show perfect speeds but my computer is barely registering 1-3 mbps upload which is ridiculous. (My ISP plan is 250 mbps).
I have read in places it takes a few hours for the Orbi to settle in and get things up to snuff but that makes no sense to me. Are there settings I am missing when I re-set up my Orbi? I went through all the settings and everything looks correct but I am no genius at this. I just wanted my Orbi's back in action like they use to be...and this is not it.
What can I do or check that you could think of? Also the ORI user interface makes me login every minute or so or when I move into a different section? Nevere remember it doing that before. Keeps saying I have to login as it is not a private connection.
See screenshots of the ORBI interface speed test and ones I ran through Midco and the standar speed test site.
Thanks
