Can you manually enter in DNS addresses into the Chrome books networking settings to see if this helps any? Enterin ISP DNS or 8.8.8.8

What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
What are the security mode settings you are currently using on the RBR? WPA2 and AES only or a mixed mode?

The modem is a Surfboard SBG6580. I just reset it which I should have tried before but since everything is working with internet I downplayed that end of it.
I am using just WPA2/AES.
