Re: Orbi RBR50 is not supporting 900Mb+- on the WAN to LAN test
With the latest firmware v2.5.1.8, Orbi is able to hit ~900Mbps in AP Mode or ~700Mbps in Router Mode.
Wireless backhaul is around 400Mbps-500Mbps:

Thanks for your information.
I can also confirm that with the new firmware (V2.5.0.108) installed it is working much better. I'm getting a much higher speed (~900Mpbs).

I presume you mean v2.5.1.8?
Glad it's working. Enjoy.

Re: Orbi RBR50 is not supporting 900Mb+- on the WAN to LAN test
Good Morning: I am running the RBK53S-100NAS from (Costco) (Firmware V2.5.1.8) on a Macbook Air (Catalina OS) everything is updated. I had ATT Fiber 300 Msps and I could easily get ~ 350 down and ~350 up using the Orbi on Wifi. I ugraded to ATT Fiber 1000 and using the Orbi in the Router mode, I can only get ~ 380 down and ~ 400 max up. I called Netgear supprt (2.5 hrs on the phone) and they said I should be getting ~ 500 Mbps down and up via Wifi. Hardwired I am close to 850 -900 Mbps. Should I return this router and try another brand?

I changed the 5GHz channel (i think from 44 to 42) and now my wifi speeds are 362 and 460 so that's a bit better. Still not close to 500+ as I was told. Thanks
