I checked my speeds on several websites and all are in the range of 110-130 mbps. That said, I’ve been very happy with NetGear Orbi. Just trying to get a handle on what my actual speeds are

Anyone notice a huge discrepancy between iPhone Speedtest app and your router

What remote server is each one testing against? It can make a huge difference.

Cox Orange County for Ookla app. The NetGear app doesn’t state the server

The server Ookla targets varies from run to run. Whichever one it chooses

The orbi app only tests the connection from the router to the internet..
