RBR50 - not getting full speeds

[Ash2dust]

Hi All,

so i recently got cable Gigabit internet.

i have noticed that the speed is degrading once it passed every router / satelite

Current setup:

Cable modem/router --> orbi router (wired)

Two satelites connected via wireless backhaul (not daisy chain, star connection)

Laptop connected directly to the modem --> 900 +- mbit

laptop connected directly to rouer --> 500 +- mbit

laptop connected to satelite --> 280+- mbit

All wired connections, tests done with the same cable and laptop. when i run the speedtest in the orbi app or website, I get around 900 mbit as well. 

Actions I have done so far:

-factory reset the orbi router and set it up again

- Disable wifi signal in cable modem / router

- add the orbi router into the DMZ zone

Firmware version: V2.7.2.104

Orbi RBR50

Any tips on how i can troubleshoot this?

Thanks!

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update? I would try this, be sure to not enable Armor, Access Controls, Circle or Traffic Meter. Run a speed test with Ooklas installable speed test app on the laptop. 

You'll not see anything near 900Mpbs on 5Ghz AC wit wireless devices. Mast max out at around 400-500Mpbs. Depends device hardware support. You shoul need near 900Mpbs on ethernet thru the RBR.
