Re: Orbi LBR20 How-To / Megathread

This comparison was to compare which carrier’s plan is more suited to my needs, that’s why I merely wanted to test them side by side on the same (newest) firmware v2.6.5.2 vs the older v2.5.20.

Compared speeds on this Dev unit with my other Main unit running v2.5.3.4 and A06 (with old armor scripts, no cronjobs), and the speeds a...
