hate to be that guy, but you have router and modem backwards.. the netgear orbi is the router.
my understanding is the orbi system is for more optimized wider area coverage(ie. full home coverage)
I'd imagine it would have the more updated chipsets to allow for faster throughput.
at 60, i wouldnt' expect more than 1 solid 4k stream, and another 2 or so hd.
and the directv sunday tkt stream, according to the supervisor i had spoken with when i had purchased it , then subsequently cancelled as they don't have enough speed for that stream without a lot of buffering untill you're over 100mb internet connection.. terribly inefficient.
fwiw, mlu, when i speedtest my wifi, i get faster than the paid for speed. but it's cause it's constantly using the speedboost that get with first start a session with via comcast. so it does hit 90mb, but it constantly starting over, as if lost connection.. great speed for a file download. but terribad for gaming/vid stream.
