Wired Backhaul

I have been using Orbi for about a week so far in my 2 story home.  My Router and Satellite are both running the current firmware: V2.1.2.18.  My wifi was very slow in sections of my home before I moved to Orbi.  My wifi coverage and speed were significantly improved right away.  The only downside is my ping rate went from 9-11 up to 15 or more.  Today I switched to "wired backhaul".  That seems to have addressed that issue.  I am getting great results with this product.  It is more expensive than I would have liked but the performance difference is huge.

I am in the US and never put a country code in unless it got picked up during my registration process.
