RBR40 / RBW30 speed issues

[teedup]

My wireless speed at my router averages about 220 mbps (checked in the room the router is in). My satellite is down the hall about 40' away and my speed there is at best 60 mbps. My hardwire speed test is around 360 mbps at my Motorola modem. I'm no expert at this stuff but this seems like a big dropoff in speed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Is the Orbi system operating in Router or AP mode?

What devices are you speed testing with? 

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials. Try moving the RBW a bit closer.

What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
What WPA security modes are you using?

Try enabling Beamforming and MIMO.

Try disabling the following and see:
Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).

Any progress on this?

Try moving the satellite closer to the Orbi base. You might also try flipping the Orbi to router mode, and set the modem to modem-only mode.
