Ensure the RBWs FW is up to date. Check NGs web page here:

You can manually download and apply FW updates yourself, if needed.
Try a different device to compare if you can.
IF you try a factory reset on the RBW and readd it to the system and the app still shows same link rate value, I would post about this in the Orbi AP forum:

What does that mean?
Isn't NG the one that decides if the FW is up to date?
