Mesh WiFi 6 router fast, but satellites SLOW

Replaced an RS router with Mesh 6. Router is running at 590 Mbps but satellites, which are downstairs, are only running at around 150 Mbps. Why are satellites so slow? I understood they were supposed to keep speeds up high.

Depending on distance, placement and building materials, will impact speeds seen at the MS. Mostly won't be the same as what's seen at the MR.
